What is the best running wheel material for Rats?
Wood, Metal, Plastic? For the Rat it often doesn't matter much what material the running wheel is made of; he's happy he can run! A nice extra of a wooden running wheel is that the nails wear out better than in a metal or plastic running wheel.
How should you clean wooden running wheels for Rats?
It was always a challenge to clean a wooden running wheel, but fortunately that is a thing of the past. Nowadays there are two types of cleaning agents that can be used to easily clean wooden running wheels. The first is CSI Urine Spray and the second is the Eco Pets Urine Buster . Both cleaning agents work on an enzyme basis and tackle the bacteria that are in urine. These bacteria are responsible for the well-known urine smell. Both sprays remove the bacteria and dirt so that the running wheel is fresh and clean again.
Can you clean rat running wheels with water?
It is not good for all running wheels to rinse them completely under the tap. It is very important that the rotating mechanism (ball bearing) does not get wet. The more often the rotating mechanism is flushed, the stiffer it becomes. This can make it squeak earlier and run stiffer.
We do not recommend washing wooden running wheels with water. Wiping with a damp cloth is no problem, but it is not good for the wheels to get them completely wet. By wetting the running wheel, the glue can come off.
What should you do if the Rat running wheel squeaks?
A running wheel can make more noise over time. For a squeaky running wheel, we recommend a drop of olive oil. This can be mounted on the turning mechanism.
