Cleaning plants?

[arielgasca420]

I have a question Bill, would Physan be too toxic for frogs?

I'm not sure. I couldn't pull the msds up on my phone. They claim you can use it safely in bird baths. I would be a bit "iffy" on it. I think i would try an h2o2 soak first.

its safe for orchids, but I was a little hesitant with frog skin.

I saw that it is orchid safe. But orchids aren't generally grown along side frogs. If i were going to chance it, i would halve the recommended dose of 1 cap per 20 gallons. Which in itself, makes a statement as to how potent the stuff is. I would go 1/4-1/2 cap per 20 gallons. But i can honestly say that i wouldn't even chance that. Not worth the risk. At least in my eyes.

My PCF's love to sleep on my Peperomia and they poop on it a lot. I just use a water bottle and spray the poop off. If it is really stubborn, I will spray it once, let it soak for 15 minutes or so and then spray it off. I will also be looking for springtails for my enclosure to help clean up things. I think woodlice would become snacks if they climb the plants. I am pretty sure that springtails wouldn't even get them interested because they quit eating fruit flies a couple months ago. I can't remove the plants from the enclosure so this is really my only choice.
