Where do you place the T-stat probe and do you use a fail safe and where do you place the probe for that?

I have seen the probe hung in arboreal set ups but with the limited height I am concerned that this will be too easily moved.

Suggestions?
Alex, I only use RHPs with my arboreals now - thrasops and spilotes.

I zip tie the t-stat probe to a the prime basking branch and I don't use a fail safe.

When I has womas and blackheaded pythons, I had a heck of a time with the snakes laying down on top of the probes. On the fail safe setup for those cages, I would place the probe halfway up the side of the cage and zip it to the wall. I would set it for the max ambient temp on the hot side of the cage.
