We recently ordered two Animal Plastic T-10s for our snakes; cages are put together and ready to go, sealant is cured. However the RHPs smell to high heaven! Ordered them from Reptile Basics and they've been on now for about 2 weeks; tanks still smell like warm plastic.

How do we get rid of the smell so we can move our snakes into the tanks? We've taken the doors off and let them run (on the thermostat) and it seems better but once we put the doors back on a few hours later the smell is back.

Should we unplug them from the thermostat and run them to help burn off whatever is causing the smell?

We'd really like to use our new tanks
