B&G Macaw
Just cut down some fresh bamboo and stripped the leaves (we won't have the B&G Macaw yet for another few weeks). Is it ok to just wash it with water mixed with a big of vinegar? We plan on making a bunch of DIY perches and toys.

Sunny a female B&G macaw;
Japie (m) & Appie (f), both are congo african grey;
All are rescues- had to leave their previous homes for 'reasons', are still in contact with them :)
Do not forget the vetwrap! ;)

Bamboo is really, really hard&slippery and you are getting a baby (who is clumsy anyway)-- so some padding that provides friction for better grip would be nice.

(Or wrap with rope for a more 'natural' look )
