Hygiene is probably the most important part of a preventive medicine program and includes attention to food and water, personnel and the environment.  A food preparation area (especially one for humans!) should never be used for cage cleaning.  Maintaining personal hygiene will also help reduce the likelihood of a [[Lizard and Snake Zoonoses|zoonosis]].  Sterilisation of the environment is not possible but the frequent use of disinfectants is extremely important in addition to the vigorous removal of faeces and other debris.
