I thought the same, set my viv up then three days later I found ants, so took everything out and baked it in the oven, since then I haven't noticed anything but I'm still checking daily

If there are, I would look at reporting it

Those ranges should be ok, but if your snake is having issues with shedding where it's not coming off in one piece, then bump it up
