I would clean the rats every three days at the longest. I used to do once a week and the amonia from their urine became unbearable. Mice are even worse and probably need to be changed every other day. Now that I clean every three days the smell doesn't get a chance to start.



Also, what kind of bedding do you use for the snakes? Any kind of aspen, care fresh, etc bedding will still absorb smell from urine and feces even if you spot clean. I use packing paper for my balls and it's easy to replace even for urates.
