I use a cheap disinfectant from the supermarket. The fresh pine smells much nicer than Jeyes :-)

I also use hot soapy water and a stiff brush and rinse with diluted disinfectant and allow to dry naturally. Clean the staging and sweep the floor before washing the inside glass and sluice the floor last. Its the drying that counts which might be difficult now?
