Duct tape scare

Woke up this morning to find my salmontine's head covered in duct tape. She wasnt moving when i first took him out of his tank. i thought she was dead! Lucky me, she wasnt. took me about 20 mins to take the tape off but its all off now and she's acting fine! Glad to have google by my side to guide me through saving my snakes life.

uhh..how does this happen? glad to hear he/she/shim is okay though.

I found that cooking oil takes sticky stuff off well.

BiggBaddWolf was wondering the same thing??????:mad::rage:

Glad she's ok - but how was she able to get to any duct tape?

The tape was temporary to hold up a jungle vine. the night i put it in she got her head stuck in it.. scared me to death.
I used olive oil to get all the sticky stuff off.

Well, I guess it was a hard lesson learned to never ever use tape inside an enclosure. For any reason. :(

i put duct tape on top of my bps enclosure, to keep humidity in and it got loose, so learned hard to. yea future refurance oil olive oil works

Olive oil might work, but with a bit of forethought, and a little common sense, the problem can be eliminated before it would go that far!!!!!!!:rolleyes:

Yeah, haha. Now I know. I replaced the tape with suction cup hooks from walmart. they work fine so far.
