    What do you think?

    Hey guys sorry for all the questions lately but I have yet another one 😊 do you guys feel the need to treat drift wood before putting it in the cage? Real excited to get my JCP cage going and looking nice but I am not sure the pieces I have will be able to fit in the oven because it is too large any thoughts? I see mixed opinions all the time.

    I would bake it so the heat would kill any un seen bugs. Mites etc everyone has their own unique method and the oven is My tool ....

    Most store bought driftwood has been cleaned, especially if it has commercial tags.

    If you just found your own out and about, then most folks clean well with hot water and bleach and maybe disinfect after.

    Some may use the oven, heat gun, or freezer as well.

    Heat guns can be picked up at Harbor Freight for $20 or less and can reach temperatures over 1000 degrees.

    The one thing I found that you can count on about Balls is that they are consistent about their inconsistentcy.

    Good job!

    You will probably find your JCP perched where there is an intersection of two sticks most of the time.
