Anybody ever use Virosan?

Ody Dec 05, 2003 09:48 PM

I'm ordering a temp gun from pro exotics, and I was going to order some of their Virosan too. Is this OK to use on beardy tanks/accessories?

It is just a 2% Chlorhexidene solution like the solution Nolvasan you get at veterinary hospitals. It is a good all around disinfectant. It would be good for general cleaning, but you would be hard pressed to beat a good old fashioned 10% bleach and water solution for antiviral control in cages and cage furnishings. Bleach is much cheaper, but the chlorhexidene won't alter the color of items.
