Thanks for the advise!

And here is my big issue with paying $300 to keep the snakes.

Its a "deposit" to keep a "pet" my snakes are not gonna pee on the carpet and ruin it so it needs replaced. They will not cause damage to the apartment so it needs repairs. But we all know the likelihood of me getting the deposit back even if no damage was done as a result of my snakes is not reasonable.

I will take ur advise and try to approach them in that manner it just really upsets me because what if he didnt close that tub and my Bee or something got out. I't would be very upsetting. And also the fact it puts me on edge as to what else they have went through and looked at.
