For anyone wanting to use a safe insecticide around their ferrets, here is
a link for Camicide
http://www.fowl-play.com/cart/enter.html
 
It is safe to use around birds, including the nest boxes & cages.  It
is affective up to 3 months.  I have used it around the ferrets with no
problems.
 
For anyone wanting a safe disinfectant to use around all warm blooded
animals, you can check out Vanodine.  "This product is an iodine based
disinfectant that should also be regarded as a biocide.  It has been
tested and proven to kill Salmonella, Strep, E.  Coli, Pseudomonas,
Candida, Staph, Aspergillus and a host of other harmful organisms.
Unlike disinfectants that are selective in the bacterial organisms that
they kill, since Vanodine V.18 is regarded as a biocide, it also kills
some viruses and fungi.  It is a very versatile product since it is
non-toxic to all warm-blooded creatures when used at recommended dilutions.
It has been used in England for many years in their drinking water."
