I'm not sure if adhesive glue is a good idea in snakes, due to the fumes
Open to correction; of course. |

Is that made from pine?
... I thought pine was a definite no-no as the resins are toxic. |

Hard as nails is fine tryme. When you seal the viv with aquarium sealant just go round the glass runners as well |

Looks like pine to me, good luck with the all-over sealant. |

| You only need to worry about pine if it gets wet mate. And I don't think it is pine, thanks for the concern. |
