used cage - any germs ?

[little leaf]

I am going to go look at some used cages today - they are the rep/ breeze - they look pretty clean in the pics- but is there a way to be sure they are safe ? can ALL germs be killed - I dont want to risk her health - they had crested geckos in them

thanks

I would recommend a good thorough cleaning (40 volume peroxide kills everything) and that's what I would use.

You can find the 40 volume peroxide at a beauty supply store and it's best to get the liquid and not the gel.

ok, yes, because I sure do not need any issues with her- or a new cage- lol I am going to get the cages in just a bit- will clean, and let them sit over night to be sure they are dry - she has quite a few- so I am getting a good price - I just dont want any issues with germs -
