Malt Vinegar??

Just cleaning out the buns and they're having a bath today.... that should be fun :roll:

Anyway I'm doing a very deep clean in the hutch and I've soaked their litter trays in boiling hot water and malt vinegar - it's worked, all the gross stains and stench has gone.

Just wanted to make sure it won't cause them any problems... I'm a bit hungover today :)lol:) so instead of asking you this beforehand I just did it and then my brain kicked in and said "shouldn't you have looked into whether malt vinegar is bunny safe?" DOH! :shock:

Thanks in advance! :wave:
 
As long as it is rinsed Vinegar is OK for cleaning

In general Bunnies dont need bathing though. It can cause problems for them. A thorough regular grooming session is much better for them :D
 
A lot of people on here use vinegar for their buns. As well as litter trays, I find it helpful in hutches - it removes white wee stains from the walls really well.

For their buns? For what reason would you use it for buns or am I reading this wrong and you mean buns as in buns litter trays?
