>>My snake crapped her water bowl and I want to know how to make sure its clean. Any advice appreciated, thanks in advance.
The best cleaning solution hands down is Nolvasan - (chlorhexidine diacetate) it kills more nasties then anything else including bleach and ammonia. I know VETS use it and many people on the boa forums swear by this stuff for cleaning and taking care of wounds because of its residual activity, HOWEVER I do not personally use it and I have not read if anyone uses it to clean water bowls. I have read people using it as "mouth wash" to help with mouth rot. Hopefully others who may use it can chime in.
I personally use Distilled vinegar and boiling water and never had any issues at all, I have been using it for 10 years or so as well. Hope this helps.
