Why is there no "no cleaning" command?

Seems to be kinda useless to clean the animal pen or in the wilderness

Pawns will always clean the home area, so to stop them from cleaning you can decrease the home area's size. That will however come at the cost of pawns not automatically extinguishing fires in area's not marked home. (Which can be somewhat of an issue if your animal pen is in the middle of the base).

It would be nice if one could specify a separate cleaning area in vanilla, but unfortunately as far as i am aware this is only possible with mods. I believe Cleaning Area works well for this, in case you wish to fix the issue the "Modded" way:

I don't know if it's part of a mod I use but you can tell them not to clean by removing it from their work list. I like to encourage only women to clean in the Kingdom of MAN. ;D

Unfortunately, cleaning area depends on your home zone. So if your home zone includes some wilderness, them pawns will clean it.

I prefer Cleaning Priority over CleaningArea, has a better UI imo.

It uses the home zone by default for obvious reasons, but you can set it to under constructed roofs, some other things I don't care about, or a custom zone.

LOL, when I said 'cleaning area' I wasn't talking about the mod CleaningArea, I was talking about the default vanilla cleaning area that is set to home zone. I know you can set it under build roof, no roof, etc, but I like the UI in Cleaning Priority better, and that I can set different areas to be cleaned and then have the one on top prioritized over the others.
