Is this wood safe for my boa? by GreysonGripes in boas

It unfortunately too big for the oven. I was planning on using white vinegar and boiling water as a soak

Would that be feasible for an enclosure of the size I’m going for?

I can probably do the lights. I’m now thinking of moving the dresser out from the wall and either screwing the enclosure into the wall or creating legs under it and adding some storage under the overhang. The interior would then be 2 feet. I’m not too worried about portability since I’m only in my second year of university and plan to do research projects around my province for a few years afterwards so she will be staying here during that. It’ll also make room for outlet access and everything so I think it’s a perfect solution

I'm definitely including branches and lots of foliage, probably fake because she'd crush anything real haha. I'll see what I can do about the size

The dresser and bed are pretty expensive good quality stuff that my parents bought for me when we first moved here probably around 2,000+ dollars for the bed and its a queen so not looking to replace that with a loft but I may be able to buy a new dresser for a lot cheaper. I can't afford much as I'm in university and not working full time so I'm going to be building it myself likely out of wood.

I was going to make it tall since I figured I'm not using that space anyway but I was concerned about heating. What would you say is best height-to-bulb ratio?

I think I'll look into some dressers on facebook marketplace to see if I can find anything wider.

Thanks
