Lining for tortoise house

[colatoise]

I have a wooden tortoise house and want to line the bottom with something to prevent it from rotting. What do you guys recommend?

Shower pan liner. It's in the plumbing isle in home depot. It's a 20 mil poly very thick plastic. It works great. Or you can also use pond liner it's a little cheaper but thinner mil. They both work great.

Glad this thread popped up. Didn't even think about lining my house. Oops!

I use a shower curtain in my tortoise table. It's easily replace and cheap at the dollar store. Good luck!

Thanks guys! Good ideas. I'm going to compare the shower pan liner with the shower curtain and then choose.

I would suggest pond liner personally, shower liner is much thicker, but it's also pretty expensive. I got my pond liner for $4 a foot in a 5' wide roll. I saw at home depot shower liner was double that price. Both will do the same, and have great durability

I used some leftover 20mil pond liner.

What should I use to attach it with? I would like it to look as professional as possible, but inexpensive

I cut my shower curtain a little bigger than needed and just used the excess on the side to keep it set.

you can either staple it at the top and corners, or you can just put it in there and forget it or use an adhesive glue and adhere it to the bottom and up the sides a bit.
