Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

Advice wanted
Hello there.
I wonder if anyone can help me on this one. Storm, my iguana lives in a converted wardrobe, (6ft*3ft*3ft) with a two front doors made of 6mm Polycarbonate. ( I will put a pic on soon) However, what with the weather in the U.K turning colder, the Viv has become a major atraction for flies, as it is the warmest place in the house. I fight a loosing battle to keep the little pains from getting into the viv, but they always seem to get in when Storm comes out to play. We keep the inside clean, and all excess food swept up daily. It seems to be the warmth they are after.
I obviously cant use Fly spray or chemicls in there as they would harm Storm, but does anyone have any advice on how to kep them out of the viv, short of never opening the door?
any thanks for any advice that you can give!
NIK.

i dont know if they call it something differnt in the uk, but use pest strips or fly paper, its made to hang down from a surface and when flys land on it they get stuck and you can just replace it as needed its pretty cheap . hang it in the middle of the cage where the iggy cant fuss with it.

I dunno if this works or not, but hanging a ziplock bag full of water over a doorframe somehow keeps flies out of the room.
You can also use flie tanks, which is just a container that hangs and inside is this mixture that the flies get stuck in and die. It's easy to clean and you can re use it.
And the flie strips, there is another type which is like a flie strip, but it's in a tube shape and you just toss it out and replace it.
