Best Way to Stop????

Hi all just wondering what would be the best way to stop the dial turning on the thermostat when the snakes slither over it.?? I couldn't work out why the thermostat dial kept going back to 25c when I hadn't touched it. Haha!! Saw the culprit actually do it last night little bugga!! Dave suggested blu tack, but I'm not so sure about that.? Cheers Cheryl

Hi
The easiest cover will probably be a wire light cover available from most pet / reptile stores.
Or you can just make one out of bird wire.

Might have to get Dave to knock one up out of the leftover mesh we had for all our rat cage lids. Cheers

rodentrancher,
Use blue tack to hold it in place, looks a bit ordinary but it gives you easy access to the thermostat for minor adjustment and is very very cheap.

Cheers
Dave

Blue tac or a small piece of racing tape works a treat.
