Do you think it would be okay to superglue the temperature probes to the bottom of the faun?

Just a small blob on the wire near the probe to keep it in place?

Stella keeps moving the probes out of the hides when shes active at night and then the temp reading drops and the alarm goes off!!! Lol.

Just checking superglue wouldnt be harmful? When dry obviously?

Thanks

I thought tape of any sort was a serious no-no with snakes?

You're better off not using tape. I use aquarium selant to stick down probes.

Doesn't silicon sealant let off a toxic smell ?

i get mine from a local pet shop and it's cheap enough

another alternative to sticking the probe down is to just pin it down with a rock as 'decor'
