Cleaning Incubator

[E.M. Silkies]

Hi all,
What do you use to clean and sterilize your incubator? I can't imagine that it would be ok to use regular cleaning products...is it? So.... What do you use after each use of the incubator?
Thanks

Clorox and water. sunlight also helps!

I use bleach. And I make sure I rinse really good. Just use a tiny splash of bleach otherwise I find it very very hard to get the smell out and the incubator will stink like bleach.

What about a LG? Does the bleach affect the styrofoam at all?

I just use dish detergent and hot water and then I spray it down with Lysol to disinfect. Oh I have a LG also

I use bleach on my hovabators and it doesn't affect the styrafoam

clorox/bleach + water is the way to go.

If it is a styrofoam incubator: open it up and let it dry in the sunlight after cleaning.

Oxine and water. Wipe it down, rinse it off and let dry.

I use a dish soap and a cap full of bleach in the tub and soak the bottom in it I have a hova bator 1588 doesn't hurt the Styrofoam one bit.
