One page, top to bottom:
Printed under the title: The cleaning round for a coop or house — spot clean, full muck-out, bedding changed, disinfectant used.
Your interval, the product's label. No cleaning frequency and no product is recommended. How often a house needs doing depends on the birds, the stocking and the weather, and any disinfectant must be used to its own label. Write your interval at the top and work to it.

The sheet prints no interval. It depends on the number of birds, the size of the house, the bedding and the weather. Deep litter and daily removal are both valid systems with very different schedules. Choose yours and record against it.
Record treatments with the two withdrawal dates that matter, so eggs and meat are not used before they are clear.
Keep a register of birds on the holding, with the movements that anyone asking about disease or provenance will want to see.
Record cleaning and disinfection properly, with the contact time and rest period that decide whether it achieved anything.
