Place the habitat in a low humidityarea that's cool - temperature should be between 65-75 degrees F (18-24 degrees C) - and out of direct sunlight.
Line the habitat with an appropriate amount of clean bedding. The bedding should be spot-cleaned as needed and changed as directed by product packaging.
