Safe for cage cleaning?

I found this spray, Green Works, it's 99% natural, and it's supposed to have the cleaning power of normal Clorox products. Are these ingredients safe to use to clean Hedgehog items?

Green Works® Natural All-Purpose Cleaner (99.93 percent natural): Filtered water, coconut-based cleaning agent (nonionic surfactant, alkyl polyglucoside), corn-based ethanol, glycerine, essential oils, biodegradable preservative, colorant

I have a rule when it comes to the hedgies.. If I cant pronounce it I wont use it around them.. Vinegar and water are super safe to use around them and clean really well.

Yup, I use a 50/50 mixture of vinegar and water for my hedgies.

Is it okay to sanitize with rubbing alcohol? I take Mika out of her house and put her in a box for about a half hour while I do the daily poopy/peepee scrub down with alcohol. That takes about 5 minutes and then I let it evaporate and put the fan on to get out any vapors and let it sit for like 20-30 more minutes.

With the Green Works, I've also been wondering, since my dad got me some wipes, but I wouldn't want to risk leaving any chemical residue for her to lick up. I use them on countertops where her poopy-feet have been, but that's about it.

The vinegar solution mentioned is a great cleaner. Vinegar is effective for killing most mold, bacteria, and germs, due to its level of acidity. Plus is it economical, environmentally friendly and edible.

Its almost scary what vinegar can do, and yet we can eat the stuff.
