Is there a reason why you're constantly misting the tank/cage? Just curious. I have a Hondo and don't mist it unless she's ready to shed, which is when I put in a humidity box for her. Other than that, there's not really a need to mist all the time.



I also have a huge piece of wood in Lola's tank, and I clean it every month when I do the thorough tank cleaning. I just use diluted bleach (1:5 (bleach:water) let it sit while I'm cleaning the tank, then do a thorough water rinse. You could also use the Clorox Anywhere spray. That works well, and it doesn't harm animals/kids. Or cleaner specifically made for reptile/amphibian enclosures. I would still rinse it though. Let it air dry before you put it back in the tank too. Just some ideas as to what you can use.



Good luck!
