Planning on wallpapering/painting my livingroom in the next 2/3weeks and that's where the snakes are kept. I assume it would be best to move the snakes out, and i plan on moving them into the spare room while decorating.
But how long after painting should i keep them out the livingroom before i can more them back? |

Leave for 2 or 3 days until the fumes or strong smell of paint has gone.  |

| I have painted and wallpaper twice without moving mine out. As long as there's enough ventilation and your not using super toxic paint you will be fine. But if your moving them out anyway it won't harm them. I would say when you any smell it strongly any more. |
