I have heard many people recommend using a steam machine to clean their cages. What brand/model do you recommend?

thanks. I know this may sound stupid, but I have no experience with this type of device. Do you need to steam the bars of the cage and then wipe with a towel to get the grime off? thanks for any advice. I just want to be fully educated before I spend any more money. :)

Actually I have never thought about using a steam cleaner. I just bought a new cage that is HUGE and I wouldn't be able to move it around a lot to clean it. This is why I joined this form, glad to see other people with sugar gliders have awesome ideas I never thought of!

Yes, I do steam the bars first then wipe :) I had a old steamer :) and it lasted for ten years ;) it's really worth the money in the long run. I could never live with out one now :) that's for sure :)
