Cleaning advice...

Hello, I need some help/advice on what to clean my veiled chameleon's cage with. I normally just get his poop up as soon as he goes and use really hot water and paper towels to clean his cage, although I've only had him for 2 1/2 weeks, but I would like to use something that will help kill any bacteria or help keep it from growing. If anyone has any techniques or advice I would very much appreciate it ;) Thanks!!!
 
I was told to use the yellow windex. I use it with a combination of lysol wipes. I have extra cage floors. So I clean them, spray them with water, dry with paper towel, and let sit until needed in a rotation. Hope this helps.
 
You can purchase various disinfectants at beardeddragon.co I use them for cleaning my cages. They are the type used in vet offices.

Great!!! Thank you so much!! Also can I use this on live and fake plants and vines in his cage? If so, I should clean them with the windex and Lysol then rinse well with water, correct?

Going to order me some now. You recommend the professional consentrate disinfectant? The pink looking stuff?
 
Live plants: dip in dawn and water mix. It also kills mites and gnats.
Fake plants: I use scalding hot water from tub. Left in storage bin in rotation like cage floors.
To answer earlier question, ALWAYS rinse with water afterwards.
