I have been warned by a family member (and he has had and bred snakes for a long time) to shy away from U.T.H's as they could fault and really injure or kill ur pet. Trying to get an idea of how many of u guys use them and how u feel about them. I think that if I use one it will greatly help my humidity prob. as opposed to my ceramic heater that does a wonderfull job with the temp but the humidity is too low. Any and all feedback welcome-Ty -Ray
