Directions for Use

1. Surface Preparation: Clean the terrarium’s surface where you’ll attach the hammock. Suction cups adhere best to dry, smooth surfaces.
2. Attaching the Hammock: Press each suction cup firmly against the terrarium wall. Slightly dampening the suction cups beforehand can help improve grip.
3. Positioning: Place the hammock at a comfortable height where your reptile can easily climb on and off. Adjust as needed for easy access and basking convenience.

What Materials are Used in the Repti Basking Platform Hammock?

The hammock is crafted from durable, soft nylon mesh that supports reptile weight comfortably and provides a non-abrasive surface for climbing. The suction cups are made from high-quality plastic to ensure a strong grip on terrarium walls.

Are There Any Possible Side Effects or Concerns?

Suction Cup Care: Over time, suction cups may lose grip if the surface isn’t properly cleaned or if they are exposed to dirt. Always clean and dampen them slightly to enhance adhesion.

Not Waterproof: While suitable for most dry environments, avoid placing the hammock directly in water or overly humid areas, as this could impact the suction cups’ effectiveness.
