what do people use to clean their vivs? Also to neutralise odour? i know there are special products you can buy, but i also know that there are usually better/cheaper home alternatives. so far to remove limescale which builds up from misting with rubbish london water i use either a piece of lemon or lime. I know you can use dilute detergents to clean cages, but this doesn't really seem to cut the mustard.

any suggestions?

Can't really help as mine are mesh screen vivs, these are emptied, pressure cleaned and then dryed and a diluted bleach wash just wiped over the base and frame (I don't spray the cages so there is no chance of them licking the residue bleach).
