    Re: Mesh screen terrariums

    I am going to go out on a limb here and say no. The only way that could happen would be in a humidity/heat controled room with no A/C and very little if any air circulation. Get a Sterilite if your wanting something bigger. How big is your snake?

    One of the worst possible things that you can use to keep a snake in.

    Not if you cover the whole thing in saran wrap and duct tape!

    See the clear tubs at the bottom those are sterilite tubs. Way WAY cheaper than VIV's and you can us them in a rack style set up.
