i posted this in the caging forum but it doesnt see a lot of traffic.
i need to re purpose my current snake room into a bed room and my 2 options are out building or basement. out building would be expensive as id have to run electric/generator/ new heating and cooling unit....ect ect.
the basement has its own drawbacks. it does get moist and on occasion water has entered it. only the front half though. back half stays dry. so i have kept rats down there for over a year and havent had any issues. my biggest concern is with the relative humidity and air quality. i have never noticed mold or mildew but im sure it is their somewhere.
if i build a seperate room and seal away from water and dampness of the rest of the basement do you think they would be ok? ive also thought i could add a air purifier and a dehumidifier in the summer and a humidifier in the winter. i live in new york and teh heater drys the air excessively.
all input is appreciated.
