advise on Disinfectant for tortoise table

[Rramagge]

Hi I was wondering what disinfectant is the best to use when cleaning a tortoise table? I don't want to get one and then find out it can harm them.
Any suggestions much appreciated

I use bleach diluted way down with water. But I don't have wood so not sure if that is ok to use on wood.

Is nolvalsan ok for wood?

Are you putting a new tortoise in an old tortoises table? Why do you want to disinfect it? It will be very difficult to disinfect wood completely. There are some tortoise pathogens that can survive bleach. I use hot soapy water, rinse, and then a10-20% ammonia solution.
