I new to this forum and am currently building a beardie setup. I am looking to use screen for the top of the enclosure. Here in Canada we have 2 types, black fiberglass screen or silver aluminum screen.
The fiber glass is cheaper (sold in bulk), softer, has no sharp edges when cut and is more beautiful but I am wondering if it will melt under the heat lamp. I have a clamp lamp that will sit right on top. Has anyone had any experience with this sort of thing?
Not sure if it melts at those temps but I wouldn't use it. Here's what I have been told about fiberglass screen
A. Crickets can chew through it
B. Fiberglass gives off arsenic when it burns
