I just built new enclosures for my corns out of 3/4 in plywood. I've been trying to decide how to heat them. I'd like to go with Flexwatt, but want to make sure I use it correctly.



I won't use it underneath, as these cages stack and I would probably burn my house down if I stuck Flexwatt between two pieces of plywood. I was thinking of using it inside the enclosure, but I know that's not always recommended.



If I use it inside, would it be better to do a wall mount than mount it on the floor? Would that provide enough heat for a gradient? Even if I mounted it on the floor, under the aspen substrate, I'm worried the Flexwatt wouldn't be able to breath. Or that it would get moisture on it (not that the humidity is high in the cage, but rather in their hide boxes). Has anyone used it on the wall or floor of a cage with any success?



Any help/advice/tips would be greatly appreciated!
