I've got so many friends and acquaintances in Florida that I've met on here and from elsewhere, things look scary right now but we're all pulling for you. Stay safe and God Bless.
Just wondering if anyone has had issues with inside bugs or spiders that required insecticide when they had torts indoors? If so which products did you use?
I'm wondering if anyone has used any good "weather proof" or weather resistant heat lamps and bulbs? If so which brands have you had success with? I'm looking for something that will give me a basking spot on days when it's rainy and cool. Thanks!
