I recently had a wild bird that passed away. I washed the bird bath regularly with Antibacterial soap and water but the bird got salmonella. From what I've read online, diluted bleach is best for cleaning baths and feeders. I cleaned the feeders with bleach/water solution and am afraid to put them back up. The bird bath has been sitting upside down for a week now...my question is...is bleach cleaning actually safe for birds? How do I clean a bird bath with it? How do I know it will be rinsed out all the way? What is the proper solution for cleaning baths with bleach/water?
Thank you.
