    My yard gets sprayed?

    So apparently my yard gets treated for bugs. I'm asking this mostly as wishful thinking but could I have a tegu/ monitor in an outdoor enclosure with this? Or would it harm the animal? It's worth a shot to ask but I'm sure I know what the answer is.

    Erm, I am not too sure, but I personally wouldn't. The fact that that stuff is made to kill bugs, and could most likely do damage to humans, would also mean it probably is no good for your Tegu. Also, you probably wouldn't want him eating anything that happens to end up in the garden too. I may stand corrected, but that is my opinion.

    I just had to see it in words lol. Thank you. I guess I'll hold off on getting a tegu for a bit

    I read your other post about what Lizard to get. And holding off till you get your own place is the best thing. No need to make compromises like this at the current stage, just wait a few years and see how things pan out.
