: 1. I plan to put linolem on the parts of his enclosure where he poops and eats, and where his water tank is. THOSE AREAS ARE GETTING MOLDY WOOD. HOW DO I GET RID OF IT?

For mold, bleach is the key. However, if you use bleach you MUST throughly rinse the area and allow it to air out BEFORE putting him back in the enclosure.

: 2. Exactly what should I use to clean and sanitize?

For humans, the best defense is good old soap and warm water! In a pinch you can also use alcohol or hand sanitizer. For any areas for Freddy, use Novalsan. You can also use vinegar.

: 3. I've been feeding him using paper plates so that I don't have to clean and disinfect a dish everyday. Is That practical?

We occasionally use these just to cut down on wash time! Go to the dollar store and pick yourself up a few packs just to be cost effective.

Gotta run ... off to the vet this morning for Jack and Kai.
