Good morning every one, hope you are enjoying the sun (at last) ![Very Happy](https://thebts.co.uk/forums/core/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif)
I have a theory that I want to test out on you if I may?
When I moved into my house (council tenant) there was nothing on the agreement saying that we could not keep any exotic's, but a couple of year ago they altered the agreement saying that 'NO' exotic's may be kept... But as we already had the T's and nobody really bothered us, we carried on with our wonderful hobby. BUT ... a few months ago we had an inspection (first time in 10 years) and was told that we should expect an inspection every year and if any thing is out of place, every few months. Which is hell, gone has any privacy we ever had. The woman that comes around is a ... well I can't really say here, but she is not a nice lady. Looks for any thing that she doesn't like and tells you with much smugness that she can and will throw you out if any thing is wrong. The street is up in arms about her!!
But the long and short of it, I do not want to come out of a hobby that I have been involved in for the past, going on 5 years just because our face doesn't fit one day but of course I do not want to loose my house either as I have 3 young boys.
Last time she came all the spider's were moved under the bed, into cupboards...
you name it, we hid them in. The warm cabinet that mine live in went in to the shed. But this is just not practical.
SO... I bought a greenhouse back in March as I was thinking of growing some of my own produce, but I was thinking that maybe I could convert the greenhouse (still in box) into a spider room.
I was wondering if anybody had done it?
I'm not so worried about the summer heat as I bought an automatic window opener and I was planning on putting that white wash on so you cannot see inside. I realise the tubs could dry out quickly, and would have to get around keeping the humidity up, but I am more worried about keeping it warm in winter and how to insulate it. We have an oil heater that is on a thermostat and the other half said he would run a sneaky cable out, but again, how would I keep the heat in?
If anybody has done, please could you post pictures and how you did it and how you find it works.
Is it a good solution?
Thanks for reading and for any help in advance.
