Hope I put this post in the right spot?

I do all the elbow grease steam cleaning on Sundays. I do newspapers every, single day. You can say I'm anal about clean cages. :rofl:

Every morning I go through the routine of washing food and water bowls changing paper and washing down the cages, ropes and perches. I've had comments that my cages were clean enough to eat off off LOL.. I woudn't go that far! :hehe: The other night I scrubbed both daytime cages with Pet focus and will do it again in a few days. Will do the sleep cages soon. They stay clean mostly.

Every morning. We used to do it twice a week but it was actually more work. I would rather take the 30 minutes in the morning and keep it up.

Daily... as many times daily as necessary! I try to clean up poop as soon as I see it. Newspapers get changed multiple times a day (3-5 depending on the day).

I change the paper twice a day, wash dishes twice a day, clean the perches when fouled, and the cage twice a week.

Well I feel like a pig :( I clean cages once a week and change papers twice a week. I do clean the floor under their play area pretty much every day and water dishes and food bowls are cleaned daily too.

I do daily cleaning as well. Saves me so much time! I use baby wipes to wipe down bars each morning. Perches about once a week. They dont get dirty very often.

Wow, you all make me feel like a slacker. My cages' papers get changed at least daily, and the grossest parts are wiped down weekly, but a thorough scrub only happens once a month!
