Aluminum Duct Tape

This is just for reference if anyone else has this problem in the future. I had some aluminum tape holding the thermometer for the thermostat in a specific place in my ball's rack, and he ended up getting a chunk of it stuck to him. To make a long story short, if you get incredibly sticky tape stuck to your ball, put some mineral oil (we used heavy duty, fragrance free) on a paper towel, and slowly rub it along the edge (with the scales, front to back, and the oil will dissolve the glue so you can slowly push back the edge. Ripping it will pull off the scales, but the mineral oil got it off no problem.

Glad to be of service. I forgot to mention, if you can help it, don't get tape stuck to your snake. Lesson learned!

I just wanted to add one more thing. I would be careful using mineral oil near the snake's head. It can cause some rather serious lung problems if they inhale it, at least in other animals. I imagine the same thing is true for snakes.
