Someone kindly gave me a double level rabbit hutch for Charlie Russell, my DD's guinea pig whom I am looking after while she is doing 6 mos volunteer work in Colombia.

I want to give it a good clean first. Stardrops and zoflora is all I have in the house - does anyone know if it's safe to use around pets?

    The Zoflora website says that if diluted correctly, it's safe to use for animal things. See the FAQ here.

    White vinegar makes a good pet-safe cleaner. I think any vinegar would work, but white tends to smell less.

    How clever Gingervamp, now I wonder why I didn't think to look it up on their website!

    Thanks!

    I was thinking of that, though I've only got expensive balsamic in the house, and really, really don't want to make a trip to the shops with a sprained ankle. Will make sure I have some in for next time.

    Will go with dilluted zoflora for now. Thanks for the advice.
