is using aspen as substrate and giving the animals either sheets of newspaper or paper towels for security and hiding. I have never experienced any problems with keeping newspaper in cages however, I am quite meticulous when it comes to cleaning. As far as disinfecting cages and water bowels, I have used Chlorhexidine Solution over the last 15 years and have been very happy with the results. It is much less evasive than bleach, which burns the hell out of my eyes and hands.
