Is it safe?

Is it safe to have a scented candle burning in the same room as ball pythons? My rack is in my bedroom and sometimes I like to burn a candle to help lift the smell. Can any of them harm snakes? How about things used to keep odors away? Like those little can that have a gel in it that supposed to absorb odors. While it is made to absorb, I'm sure they release something. So what do you think?

I don't know. You have to remember that a ball pythons sense of smell is highly developed, more so than a human. So, I would suspect that they are much more sensitive to strong scents. If you use those things, I'd make sure the room is well ventilated.

Good point. I am just wondering if any of it is fatally dangerous

I don't think it would be lethal, just not something you may want to expose the BP too for long periods of time.
