Well it's fairly damp at the moment Nick, and excess water will drain
out anyway. I have it set to 70 degrees and on the bottom shelf I have a
heated tray type Thingy which takes four full sized seed trays. The ants
are all over that as well. As I don't have anything actually growing in
the sand could I drench the sand with something?
