[QUOTE="Whitelightning777, post: 125873, member: 26980"] Except none of my animals have been injured or killed. As typical, Moxie had pursued me from one forum to another. Frankly, heating up 50 to 100+ square feet of area to warm up a few cages is wasteful. Movie would have me heat up an entire room to keep 7 cages warm. The money you're throwing away keeping an entire room at 80 degrees is ridiculous. It's hypocritical to advocate doing something that is a threat to both yourself and your spiders in the one have while criticizing someone who safely warms up a few cages without incident. The insurance regulations, bans, accident reports and even warnings from the manufacturers of heaters clearly states that they aren't for long term unsupervised use, for personal use or animal care or any other reason. (Reading the directions isn't cheating!!) It shows a cult mentality. Moxie also demonstrates an inability to understand crime or firearm stats. 2 million is a bigger number them 35,000. I'm an armed guard. I carry for work each day. Before that, I worked in the armored truck area. I have yet to see a gun jump up off a table and shoot something all by itself. Yes, people are violent and guns might change the order of mortality, but they don't increase the death rate since deterrents reduce all violent behavior and the criminal will choose other alternatives. I'll keep my pets safe and warm. I can't stop anyone from torching their own homes. It will not be good for the hobby when (not if, when) a fire starts and the general public finds out that attempted tarantula husbandry is the cause. Build a cabinet. Use a window mounted heat pump or learn to safely warm an enclosure the right way. If not, don't come crying to me. And no, Moxie will not help you repair fire damages to your home. [/QUOTE]
