Corn snake enclosure setup and heating

[Bogertophis]

Yea, I had pet corn snakes in the past that I've just caught in my house and had them for a couple years with no issues but I think alot of my paranoia and anxiety came from the ball python I had which didnt fair to well due to the struggle I had trying to keep its enclosure just right.

Lucky you, snakes just invade your place? I used to find tiny night lizards in my former (So. Calif.) house, but no snakes. Darn!

BPs are much harder to keep, & even with everything perfect, they still often fast & drive keepers crazy. I've had BPs in the past, I much prefer other snakes, mostly
colubrids now- they do well with my typical ambient house temperature of 70* in winter (all have UTH heat & some have added over-head warmth as needed).
