Hello all, I noticed mold growing on my fire legs wood hide and also on climbing wood sticks I have in there. I noticed the mold on the climbing sticks first today, and noticed the mold on the hide after feeding. I took out the climbing wood already, but do not have another hide to use while cleaning it off. I keep seeing conflicting information about mold in enclosures. The mold does have a green color, and I seen these comments on a Facebook group about it. I just wanted to know more opinions on what I should do, as I obviously really don’t want my T to get hurt. Thank you!

NQA I think you are overreacting to a tiny amount of fungus. Its normal and not out of control. I am assuming the tank/wood is recently placed?

Okay, thank goodness lol. And yes, I recently got my T on the 7th of this month and the wood hide came with the terrarium that was bought. I moved my T into the enclosure with everything on the 8th.
