Also the cleaning solvents for carbon and copper buildup, and the oils used to lubricate firearms do offgas over time, which is probably not something you want in the herp room either.
Rust is exactly what he's worried about, but I hadn't thought about the solvent off gassing issue (he seems to enjoy taking them apart and has several bottles of various liquids, which I assume are those things), it looks like I'll be re-arranging furniture and closets tonight.
