Default Clean swing?
Hello everyone,

I have a stupid question. I have this swing.

9" Cement Swing - Sm Parrots - Asst. (Penn Plax) at BirdGuys.com - Pet Bird Store

How is the best way to clean this and other similar swings?

Thanks

I wash mine with a scrub brush from the dollar store under warm water. I let it dry in the sun or a warm room before putting it back.

Hi there! I have some cement perches and I soak them in water that I add Grapefruit Seed Extract to. Then I scrub with a toothbrush. Works very well.

Me too, soak, scrub, disinfect and dry. Anytime you can dry in the sun, it's extra good.

I clean just about everything by soaking in warm/hot water with GSE, scrubbing, then drying completely.
