Temperature problems

[NYHC4LIFE8899]

I would not recommend keeping the probe inside the tank, if the snake urinates or spills water on the probe, the probe will sense a drop in temperature causing the UTH to spike in temperature, which can result in a burn to your snake or worse.

I keep my thermometer probe inside the tank for quiet a few months now,never had any issues. I want to know the surface temp. The inside of the tank..I'm talking about the thermometers one,not the thgymostat probe..urinatung is possible,but no way he can spill water in there,plusi have a fairly thick layer of exo earth and repti bark mix which is very absorbent. Don't see how that can affect a thermometer probe. Much if at all..I've had my set up like it is for a while,my snakes are doing great. I'm leaving things as are
