F10 without fail. I get the concentrated formula then just dilute it. Great for so much more than just cleaning the viv as well. Also use the f10 hand gel instead of alcohol rub.

Same here F10.
F10 SC is a disinfectant and the F10 SCXD is a disinfectant and light duty cleaning. (You have to clean before you can disinfect)
you can get it here - http://www.bigreptileworld.co.uk/f10-disinfectant-9-c.asp and http://www.reptiles.swelluk.com/reptile-supplies/reptile-f10-disinfectant-range-1389.html

I use a product called TriGene, it's a high level disinfectant made for vets. You can buy a concentrated 5 ltr container of in for just over £50, which sounds expensive until you realise that you dilute it 1:200. One container lasts me years and I use if for all my pet cleaning. Actually come to think about it I often use it household cleaning as well (safer for the cats).

Hi, I started out using Milton, then I discovered F10, which is what the vets use ... can't say fairer than that.

i just squirt it in the viv to clean the tanks, and to clean all the decor, i wash them in hot water, then spray a bit of the disenfectant on a piece of kitchen roll and wipe all the stuff down to make sure it fully clean
