Considering moving my snakes into the garage.

[rock]

That's also why I've never kept my snakes in a "snake room" -even IF they'd fit... The old adage "out of sight, out of mind" is very true...easy to miss spilled water or
actual disasters in the making, & personally, I just enjoy seeing my pets...they're part of my life. Glad to help you think thru this...safety & enjoyment are HUGE reasons
to keep snakes where you can see & easily interact with them. Sounds like you have a nice garage though, for other things...

I absolutely agree with you. Safety and enjoyment, you nailed it. As for the other garage things, I’ll add that I also have a full size fridge for beverages, etc... And a couple years ago I covered the entire floor with heavy duty horse stall mats. Great to walk on, great for a mini gym (intended purpose at the time) and great at cutting noise. That said, the mats and the typical garage items like paint and cleaners that are in the cabinets also made me worry about unknown air toxins that could hurt the snakes. So, just a people garage for now on!
