I wouldn't put anything in the enclosure that does not need to be there especially anything porous. Snakes do stupid stuff. I was down with COVID for a few weeks and I had babies hatching. We were short on tubs so my wife had to prep more. She made one airhole a tad too big. Long story short I walked in the snake room one morning and there was a baby stuck by its head in the airhole. I ended up having to cut the tub off of the snake. The hole it got its head through was less than a centimeter in diameter but still larger than the normal holes. I watched him when I put him in a new tub and he tried it again... More stuff just means more potential problems in my world. The decor is for you not them. They could care less.
All that said I use F10 to disinfect everything. I use bleach after a clutch is laid and put in the incubator. You have to be careful with bleach though. Everything must be rinsed and dried before the animal goes back in.
