I donˇ¦t have that problem, but I have been thinking about that problem before. I think you can go buy a wine refrigerator which can control the temp. to what you need. But you just have to make some way to let the air can go in and out.

yes a wine refrig works well if you only have a few snakes. You can usually catch on on sale $90-150 depending on size. I saw an descent size on at home depo a few months ago for $120. Look like it could hold 6 adult milk.
