cleaning products

im after some advice as to what is the best thing to use for cleaning the concrete slabs in the garden where ruby does her business,
at the minute i have been using bleach, or disinfectants and keeping ruby in while it dries, but i am looking for something that i could let her out before it dries completley as now were getting into winter its not drying very quick, and ruby likes being out and about in the garden bunny rabbit and people watching so any advice is greatfully received

I use a scoop of washing powder in a bowl of hot water That gets rid of the smell. Then Hubby jet washes the patio x

I use diluted Jeyes Fluid then hose down. It will kill any plants though.

ruby has done this to most of them all by her not so little self
would this still be ok for the rabbits to go on after as well ? if we rinse it of with plenty of water, as our slabs run of onto the lawn where the rabbit run is which we cant move as its attatched to the side of the garage

I use the disinfectant and the odour killer both are safe
for your pets to walk on etc whilst the surfaces aren't dry

I use bleach on the patio but not every day, as long as it is well hosed down with water after being scrubbed it should be fine. Mine drains down a drain though not onto the lawn so have no idea what effect it would have on your grass. I only jetwash about twice a year.
