>>i've never heard of nolvasan before. but i did a quick search on it and seems to be a cleanser. what are you using it for. also found that there is a generic form of it....the active ingredient is chlorhexidine. is it some less toxic analog of bleach?
Nolvasan is pretty much the safest cleaner you can buy... Vets use it to clean out wounds because it kills viruses, bacteria, fungi, and protozoans without harming the animal. You can also use it to clean out cages, rather than having to rinse (like after you use bleach) you can just wipe it up... The residue left behind actually helps continue to disinfect for a long time. If diluted properly it can be used to treat mites on live animals! It is very safe, the only thing to be careful about is not getting it in the animal's eyes.
I hope that helps!
