I always leave a bit of the nest so it smells somewhat familiar. Also, when getting a new hamster, I insist that they give me some of their bedding from the shop so their new home does not smell completely foreign. To me, Syrians are more fussy about a cage cleaning than dwarfs, but perhaps that is just my hamsters.
