Half fill a small basin with lukewarm water. Then gently put your gerbil in but don't let it go. Massage pet shampoo into its fur and rinse it off with the water already in the basin. Don't let the gerbils head go underwater and be gentle. Once all the shampoo is gone take your gerbil out and towel dry it. Give it a treat so it knows he was good and wasn't being punished.

How do you clean a gerbil with water?

If you are a good care taker, your gerbil probably will not need a bath in water. Gerbils do like to take dust baths. The pet store sells the dust and your gerbil may be a little apprehensive at first, but give him/her some time and they will roll around in the dust in no time. It will be kinda shy. But after a couple minutes it'll hop in there.
