Now that you have grown accustomed to parenthood concerning your new sugar glider pet, it is time to think of routine clean up. There are many methods of doing this, but getting in a set routine is always the best. When it comes to bedding, newspaper is usually sufficient, easily accessible, and a quick clean up. Making sure you change the paper once or twice, a week is good to keep the odor down, but it can usually last longer than that.

When it comes to your sugar glider’s cage itself, you want to give it a good wipe down once or twice a week. You can use unscented baby wipes to clean the entire outside of the cage, but regular dish soap and water can do the trick as well. You also want to get in the habit of taking everything out and sanitizing the cage at least four times a year to kill any hidden bacteria. While you are sanitizing the cage, you also want to do the same for all the toys, plants, and dropping tray to make sure you are completely safe.

You should also make sure your sugar glider always has a clean surface on which to eat and drink. You can make sure of this by washing out their food dish and water bottle at least once a day, maybe more if necessary. You want to make sure they have a clean blanket and pouch as well and you can make sure of this by washing them every couple of weeks. Just a basic wash with the rest of your laundry will be sufficient. You want to make sure you get all the fecal matter out of it. Cleaning their toys and plants are left up to the owner’s discretion. If you realize a foul odor coming from your cage, or notice a film forming on your sugar glider’s toys or plants, then it might be time to give them a good scrub.
