Chlorhexadine diacetate?

Does anyone else use this as an enclosure disinfectant? I'm a bit concerned given all of the warnings on the bottle, yet have been told to mix 2cc per quart of water in a spray bottle to spray on enclosures and wipe off. Thanks for any advice given.

I like it because it doesn't have any fumes like bleach. For a good cleaning though, you need to first wash your enclosure with dishwasher detergeant before spraying on the Nolvasan. Allow it to sit 15 minutes to disinfect and 30 minutes to sterilize.

It's more effective than Nolvasan, but is also harder to get. Both work very well.
