Trifectant and Roccal-D are popular disinfectants. Directions for use may vary by product, so the best option is to read the label. A 1:32 bleach and water solution can also be used. Allow for at least a 15 minute wet contact time before rinsing. Each kennel should be cleaned and sanitized after each use.

Kennel dip contains permethrin and is not safe for cats and rabbits. If you want to fight fleas in your house, do the following: 1) Get some flea medication such as a Flea spray or a spot on such as Frontline from a pet shop or your veterinarian and apply monthly. Do NOT apply Frontline to rabbits. 2) get flea powder, put some in your vacuum cleaner bag and vacuum your house and furniture and also non-carpeted areas frequently to remove flea larvae which live off house dust., Dispose of the bag in the trash outside. Hot-wash all the pet's bedding, If you do this diligently for a few months you will get rid of the fleas.

The difficulty comes from the fact that dirt and gravel are, by nature, nearly impossible to truly disinfect. We can talk about disinfecting hard (non-porous) surfaces with bleach, which is really the only disinfectant that is effective against parvovirus....but nothing will truly disinfect dirt and gravel, because you can't saturate and soak all sides of every piece of dirt & rock with the bleach solution, and parvovirus can remain in the environment for months to even years.

Let it dry, then I'd spray the top layer of dirt & g
