    I never even thought about pesticides or any of that stuff, I've been using my same set for five or six years.

    I’ve always avoided bamboo in the tent. I know loads of peeps use them but I’ve always thought there could be bugs in there.

    Maybe I’m just PARANOID!

    I’m no expert but If I was concerned about bugs I’d seal the ends off with some tape or putty and give them a wipe over with some cleaning product then wipe that off.

    Just do what all us reptile keepers do. Before putting anything made of wood /stone etc into your grow tent (or vivarium) soak for an hour in a weak bleach solution then rinse clean. Gets rid of any nasty buggers or mould spores
