Dont. Attach the stat probe to the mat (with heat glue or aquarium sealant) and weigh the mat down with a heavy hide or something like that. If its fixed down it will be a pig to clean. |

Yes - the stat will control the heat so it won't matter if he burrows underneath.
When I first started, the shop (and the heatmat instructions) told me to stick the mat down with Gaffer tape ...)

I have a section of linoleum over some of my heatmats, also stops anything getting underneath |
