    You can also use a shower curtain liner under your cage, it will help protect your floor/carpet from anything that falls down and then it is easy to just wipe and or vacuum. The clear liners aren't very noticeable if you worry about how that might look.

      Since this video I have stopped using the tough and tender product because it contains tea tree and it was irritating one of my gliders. I think it would still be safe to use if it was adequately rinsed off.

      Do you mean between the bottom trays? There is less than a 1/4 or so between the cages but the bottom trays on the inside of the cage have about a 3 inch gap maybe? We trimmed a couple extra trays down and slid the pieces underneath the trays to close the gap.

    In the mean time while you think of a mod, use one of the extra trays to put on the bottom shelf under the area with the gap. That way if there is anything that falls through, it gets caught on the spare tray on the bottom :)
