Glade plug ins

[rmorse]

Hey guys,

My buddy has two red-tail boas in his bedroom, both in separate glass enclosures with screen tops. He wants to know if putting a glade plug in will affect the snakes at all...


Any harm in this?


Thanks

Why would he want to put a glade plug in the cages in the first places

Does it smell or something? I would suggest replacing the sub, bath for the snake, and a full cage cleaning including decorations.

Unless you mean just putting one in the room, in which case I have one in my room with all my reptiles and they're all fine.

I don't know if it would affect snake's but i got this email today & thought it might be usefull .Original message was written by a lady whose brother and wife learned a hard lesson this past week.
Their house burnt down.. nothing left but ashes. They have good
insurance so the house will be replaced and most of the contents. That
is the good news.
However, they were sick when they found out the cause of the fire. The
insurance investigator sifted through the ashes for several hours. He
had the cause of the fire traced to the master bathroom. He asked her sister-in-law what she had plugged in the bathroom. She listed the normal things....curling iron, blow dryer.
He kept saying to her, 'No, this would be something that would
disintegrate at high temperatures'. Then her sister-in-law
remembered she had a Glade Plug-In, in the bathroom.
The investigator had one of those 'Aha' moments. He said that was the
cause of the fire. He said he has seen more house fires started with
the plug-in type room fresheners than anything else. He said the
plastic they are made from is THIN. He also said that in every case
there was nothing left to prove that it even existed. When the
investigator looked in the wall plug, the two prongs left from the
plug-in were still in there.

Her sister-in-law had one of the plug-ins that had a small night light
built in it. She said she had noticed that the light would dim and then
finally go out. She would walk in to the bathroom a few hours later,
and the light would be back on again. The investigator said that the
unit was getting too hot, and would dim and go out rather than just
blow the light bulb. Once it cooled down it would come back on. That is a warning sign

The investigator said he personally wouldn't have any type of plug in
fragrance device anywhere in his house. He has seen too many places
that have been burned down due to them.

Of course just the room, not the tank. Lol, if he asked me if he could plug one in in his cage, I would tell him to clean out his damn cage!
