Hi Varna

You can just get some white vinegar and clean Lucy's cage and litterbox out with it to help cut smells.

I use it just as I would a regular cleaning product. It's safe and it also helps pull the urine stains up from wood.

Don't know if that's the question you had, but thought I'd mention it.

Kisses to Lucy from all of us in Tucker Town.

What she said. LOL Amazing how white vinegar is such a good cleaning aid for the rabbit cage.

What's the dilution formula?

I think it's the same amount of water as vinegar

I use straight vinegar in the litterbox but I rinse it well after I clean it.

Vinegar is a detourant for rabbits. They don't like the smellor taste. So anything you use it on they might not chew, oruse..... unless you rinse it well. (at least that's what I have beentold and found when using it on cages to detour chewing)

IT WORKS!!!

I read about soaking the cages in straight white vinegar - I forgotwhich thread - last week so I tried it over the weekend. I poured thevinegar in the bottom of the cage and let it sit for 20 minutes. When Icame back all the old urine deposits had dissolved and I cleaned themout with a brush.

It was amazing!:shock::shock:

And to think of all the Saturdays I spent over the summer out in thebackyard scraping away with a putty knife and rubber gloves. Sheesh!

Yes, Varna! it's great! Like BunnyMom says.... straight white vinegar left to soak for a bit takes off all the urine residue.

If there is a buildup of it, you might have to let it sit for a goodwhile, so put something else in that pan's place or whatever, but rinseand wipe with a papertowel or something and it's gone.

I use it on Bo's plastic litterbox all the time and it keeps it like new.

I only have to wash his pan 1 time per week now that I got woodypet, but it is wonderful.

Vinegar is a good cleaning product for other things as well.I have a part-time business where I clean some houses. I usevinegar and water in a spray bottle to clean up hairspray off ofceramic tile floors (let it soak for a bit and mop up with very hotwater)..... It will also take soap scum off showers and things.....

I just pour it directly into the pan or onto a paper towel, wipe downthe area or the litterbox, then use water on a paper towel to clean itup and dry it. It doesn't take much vinegar to do thejob. I really want to make sure it attacks the smellespecially on the wooden floor as it soaks in in some places, so that'swhy I choose to do it the way I do.

It works great for plastic as well, Varna.
