I got the wood cut a Lowes. Then stained and sealed the wood. I got the wood and painted it in about 4 hours. then let it dry for a day and put it together in about an hour. I plan to give it at least another week to air out before any snakes will go in. So will one strip of 3" work on each level or should I use 11"? Each level is 17" by 24".Thanks
