>>When I use to colect snakes I kept the breeding mice in the garage. I also work on a lot of hot rods and there are a lot of fuems in there. Not necisarily exaust but paint and power and cleaner fuems. I had my breeders die on me not long after geting them. I am now back into colecting snakes and would liek to know if these fuems do infact hurt the mice or was it just the timeing? Also are Snakes hurt by them? My wife said if I get manny more I would have to put them somwere els, she suggested the garage however I do not want to do this if they will get hurt by the fuems. As far as tempreture it is never to cold or to hot. The garage is downstairs and stays above 60 every night and never gets above 80 during the hot california summer days. Thanks a bunch for the help.

Yes, the fumes will hurt them, the rodents and the snakes and are very likely the reason they died before. DON'T keep them where you will be working with all those toxins. 60 is a bit low at night anyway so you would need some heat on them. Aiming about 5 degrees higher for the mice and then for the snakes minimum, depending on what you are keeping.
