Python & Aphids, Problem, Major HELP

[pink_zombie]

ya, what had happened were they came from my tomato plants i brought in from outside...

i got rid of them, and have no other plants, i also live in winnipeg, mb, canada which its minus 30celusis, with a windchill of minsu 37celusis, so anything in window frames etc are now dead, i never had a problem with my snake tank till i brought in tomato plants.

I then didnt get rid of the substrate but baked it along with the wood etc, and cleaned the rest. i didnt see anything for 2 months in the tank. or in my house (only had a few flying in my house, but none anymore they went into my vingar traps i made)

but now i seen babies in the tank of the gnats, so i know that baking didnt kill them... i now got rid of all wood and substrate, and cleaned everything very very very well, i only have her cave, water dish and ceramic pot. and today bought her a foam magnetic shelf, a new heat plastic box and a new fake bark(sorta plasticish)(which doubles, as to aid in her sheding if she needs as its pretty rough like real bark), and am using news paper for substrate and paper towel in her cave, and in the plastic heating box. will do that for about 4 weeks with the news paper till i see everything is clear.

so i think ill be good for a bit, i was going to go with aspen substrat, but because you cant really mist it, im going with this coco or coconut substrate, which doesnt carry bugs or they cant, like my bark can, as per this great reptile store that just opened in my city suggested today.

the other thing, with the topic of my tank being too big, i have no problem with my snake eating when i take her out, and with her shedding, so i believe that when i do start to have a problem, then i will consider change, but untill then, she seems happy, shes alive, her tail isnt flat, and she loves me lol jk... but seriously im not going to go into panic mode till that happens,and niether should anyone else, snakes live in the outside just fine too which is a lot bigger then 4 x2.
