The Chlorihexidine Solution we use to clean cages is sprayed directly on the animal and wiped dry with paper towels
Never use soap for any reason on a boa,depleting the oils in their skin is asking for issues.
Plain water does not "clean".

>>How do you guys clean your boas when they have crap and urine all over them? I was thinking of soaking them in a mild solution of dawn dish soap (unscented). Would this be fine for their health?
