Default Re: Baby wipes?

I've seen people use them but don't think they're not really needed. Some actually have quite a strong scent, not sure what exactly is in them but that's one of the reasons I don't use them myself. Usually just water is enough to be honest and if really needed (ie if a hamster is ill/died or the cage has somehow got really dirty) then some kind of proper cleaner.

In a big enough cage though you should very rarely if ever need to take everything out and wipe it all down, it isn't really necessary. Bedding changes every 6/8+ weeks are usually enough (adding back about 1/3 of the old stuff each time). Just checking as over cleaning is quite a common mistake!
