Well I am wondering the best way to clean my incubator. Its a Cabinet. I have used clorox bleach in the past and just wanted some more options if there is any.
 
I like the brinsea sanitizing solution rather than bleach, it seems expensive but its very concentrated so a bottle goes a long ways. The racks and trays that come out get washed with dishsoap and hot water then rinsed well (sometimes egg trays that fit go through the dishwasher).
 
I just use bleach water! Its cheap and it works!

I use hydrogen peroxide. A big bottle at Walmart is, like, $1 and I always keep several bottles around in case of poultry emergencies.

It makes a very satisfying fizzing sound when it's sprayed on

{edit} I've never sprayed it on the eggs but I guess if I dilute it 50% I could add it to the spray water for some added protection... great idea!

I guess I didnt realize that you could do that to an egg while incubating it. It helps fend off infections and bacteria but is it a must during incubation?
