Incense

[Toad37]

So someday hopefully soon I'm goin to have a snake room. Not very big but a room where all the reptiles have to themselves. This room will also double as my "escape" room from the world to go and relax. I really like to burn incense so would it be okay to burn them in the reptile room or would it not be healthy to the animals or worth the risk at all?

I wouldn't burn anything around snakes...they've mostly only got one lung & who knows what things in the smoke they could react to. (I'm thinking about how
some incense is similar to cedar & other things that are bad for snakes...)

I knew pine and cedar we're harmful to them I just wasn't sure of other smells. Incense don't produce a bunch of smoke but ur probably right I shouldn't. Better safe than sorry. Thanks!

I understand where you're coming from (relaxation room) but I wouldn't chance it, personally. We know about pine & cedar because they're common, but it's
hard to say what all they put in incense that they might react to.

No eucalyptus either.
