Re: Humidity Helper
I would think that it would be an awesome bacteria medium... I could use it in some of my petri dishes to grow some icky stuff.
Just kidding. But seriously, how can that not be gross? It would grow bacteria like nobody's business. It's like putting a kitchen sponge in the enclosure. Eew, ick, blargh...
I would have to give it a "no-go" as it is just extremely capable of producing massive amounts of bacteria and exposing them to your snake.

Re: Humidity Helper
I saw those things in a herp magazine and thought the exact same thing.
What if you soaked it in chlorhexadine? Is that a stupid idea? lol

Re: Humidity Helper
I just found out that the humidity in my apt. gets low when the heater is on....it got down to like 50 deg. here the other day, so I turned it on for the first time....The humidity in 'the closet' was getting to around 40 and I don't do well without humidity....
i went it picked up two humidity units for about $25 each....one for my bedroom, one for the office/herp room. They seem to be doing really well.

Re: Humidity Helper
I wonder though.. would a room humidifier raise the humidity inside the cages too? I guess it would..
