Hello. My parrot is very dirty, cracks paper, poops on the fly, cracks foam or foam rubber. In general, there is always small rubbish in the apartment, there is no time for vacuuming, I thought to buy a robot vacuum cleaner, but it is not true that it is good. How do you deal with it? Give me an advice, please?

cracks foam or foam rubber.
I don´t know what that is, but it doesn´t sound very bird friendly.

I use a cordless hoover and I love it, super quick. My mum has a robot and loves that but she has no birds.

I use a shopvac for large debris and a Dyson for regular cleaning.

Shopvac or Shark Navigator is what I use! It only takes 5 mins once a day.

If I were to get a robot I would use one meant to use in garages for hardware

I have the eufy pet robo vac and its held up to a lot but I only have one bird. She dont chew up wood or anything, she likes to chew up a lot of cardboard and paper. Its done well at picking up cat food, litter, pellets, and cardboard so far. Does wonders on cat hair. I have to empty it once every 2 or 3 days but other than that I love mine. Make sure everything is picked up out of the floor that it could get stuck on though. Thats if you decide to get a robovac :) I like my shop vac though on the days there is huge messes I just want quickly out of the way.

Birds are messy pets, thats for sure. You get used to it :) I just use a hand vaccuum as soon and almost every time I see a mess (I leave it next to Charlie's cage), takes a few seconds and makes weekly cleaning of his cage and area less discouraging :)

I find my hoover does not take care of parrot messes. I really have to use my shop vac so I don't burn up my hoover vac.
