I use vinegar when I clean out the litter boxes (rinsing thoroughly), and clean the self-stick tile in their cage with antibacterial Mr. Clean. I know that stuff isn't the safest, but I use it to clean off the bottom-scrapes the girls insist on doing after potty breaks :) I do wipe it down with a damp rag and dry it thoroughly afterward. Does anyone have other suggestions as to what I can use to clean boxes and vinyl tile? Fuzzie safe recipes? I heard a tip where you add 1/3 baking soda to 2/3 vinegar; is this effective at killing germs? Thank you so much! ~Jessica p.s. I am sorry to hear about the passing of Bandit...I have been following his story since he was accidentally stepped on a while ago. I don't know why, but I've been keeping track. Very sad, my prayers are with Bandit's hoomans. [Posted in FML issue 3130]
