well, I use about a 10% dilution and it hasn't damaged them yet... personally, I think the soap and water is the most important part, just getting any dirt/gunk off the styro to begin with! I usually put it in the utility sink, add a good amount of antibacterial dish soap and fill with HOT water and let it soak a good while, then scrub lightly and rinse... once it's dry then I spray it down lightly with the mixture. I've heard oxine works good too, haven't gotten any to try. I use what I've got available.

oh and use the air compressor for blowing any dust out of the fans and off the heating elements before wiping down the top half.

I have Hoverbator and Brinsea Eco 20. The Brinsea is much easy to clean than Hoverbator because all parts are plastic.

What are your hatch rates if you dont mind me asking?

What are your hatch rates if you dont mind me asking?

my overall hatch rate, including shipped and local eggs is about 70%... if you just count local eggs, it's closer to 90%. I don't count clear/infertile eggs btw... that's the % of eggs that start and go all the way to hatch.

I have three that are a tad over thirty weeks old. I got my first egg from them this past Friday. I got two one day, so it appears that two of the three are laying.

What color are you eggs.
