Using this Java wood reptile decoration is easy. First, decide where you want to place it in your reptile's enclosure. You can position it horizontally for basking or vertically for climbing. Combine it with some real or artificial plants and vines to create a more natural look. Before putting it in the enclosure, give it a quick rinse to remove any dust. When it comes to maintenance, every few weeks, take it out and clean it with a mild soap and warm water. Rinse it thoroughly and let it dry completely before putting it back. Keep in mind that although it's resistant to damage, don't let your reptile chew on it excessively as it could still cause some minor wear. Also, if you notice any signs of decay or excessive dirt buildup, it might be time to replace it.
