Can I use Clorox wipes to clean my pet's cage without harming them?

Question

Last week when cleaning Sebastian's cage, I tripped and broke the corner of his tray. I glued it back together, but I was wondering, can I use Clorox wipes to clean his tray in stead of soap and water? I don't want the glue to come off and have to re glue the corner. I'm unsure if I should use the wipes because I don't want him to get hurt in anyway. Pet's info: Small Animal | Guinea Pig | Male | unneutered | 4 months and 10 days old

The problem with using clorox wipes is that you still will have to rinse the area as clorox residue can hurt your animal. You can put tape along the cracks for the time being and wipe the area with a wet cloth. I suppose you will have to save up for a new cage bottom or find a plastic bottom that will fit into the tray.
