    Heating garage for mice and asfs

    Hey guys, so we just built and insulated a room in our garage to expand our rodent breeding, what type of heater would you use? I know that the heater won't be needed for long as it's warming up but for next winter I want to be set.

    I use an oil filled radiator I got at Walmart to keep the temp in the low 70s in the rat breeding room.
