    We use it. It works great, and we've never had any problems with it. It is supposed to be used along with Wipe Out 2, but I find fewer stores carry that (around here any way).

    No, you don't have to rinse. Just wipe away any residue and make sure it is dry and ventilated before you put the frogs back in. I guess you could rinse it out also if you wanted to, but it isn't necessary. :-)

    I also use this and have never had a problem. just make sure it is completely dry before putting your decor/animals back in. I have never rinsed.

    I have used Wipe Out for years. Great stuff. I do rinse my glass after use by misting it and using a small squeegee to dry. Probably don't need to but it has been a habit of mine since I started using it.

    I use it and love it! I don't rinse with my snakes, but do with frogs.

    i use it on my dart tank. I just spray it on a paper towel and wipe the glass. I don't take the frogs out or anything. No problems as of yet

    Would you trust this product on wood that is siliconed to the tank when trying to kill any possible bacteria or virus?
