 Bathing uros?

Hi everyone,
I’d like to know how some of you guys bathe your lizards and how regularly. My guys have a terrible habit of stepping in their own feces and I’m starting to think they need a bath, despite how much I know they despise water. Any and all advice is greatly appreciated from experienced owners.

I do not bathe or soak them at all. If smeared feces is bad, and not coming off on its own, I will spot clean with a damp paper towel.

I hear that giving them a bath can cause tail rot, so I’d do what the person above reccommended.
