Reliable Ventilation and Secure Containment for Reptile Terrariums
The Zilla Fresh Air Screen Cover is designed specifically for the unique needs of reptile environments. The metal mesh screening promotes the healthy exchange of air that cold-blooded reptiles need to stay healthy and active, while remaining tough enough to withstand the clawing of even the largest pets.
Built with lighting hoods in mind, the mesh stands up to the high temperatures generated by heating bulbs. The long-lasting black steel frame holds its shape through years of daily use, making this a dependable, low-maintenance cover for any 30 x 12 inch terrarium.
For added security, this screen cover is compatible with screen clips, combination locks, and a cord access port (all sold separately).
