    A thermostat is NOT a thermometer. A thermostat controls the hearing pad based on a temperature sensor.

    You also need better thermoneters. You need one that has a probe

    This thermometer is good, costs $12 at Walmart and measures 2 temperatures (hit side and cool side) as well as humidity



    Here are some good thermostats. (don't bother with the crap sold in pet stores, it isn't worth your money.

    You must have a thermostat to regulate a heat pad, otherwise they can and will get hot enough to kill your snake.

    You should unplug the heat pad until you have a thermostat.
