Ivy is indeed on the toxic list. It can be deadly for reptiles, but is mainly if it's ingested. A veg eating lizard would be a definite no go, some snakes as well.
Just take a trip down your local Dunelm Mill (or the Range if you have one) and get some fake ivy, it's usually about 4 quid for a 6ft garland and is quite effective.
There is a type of ivy/vine that I'm currently trying to get hold of that is safe for reptiles, however trying to get it in this country is not easy, I believe the only place that sells it in the UK is in Bristol.

Have a read of this link, plants believed to be toxic. http://www.thecornsnake.co.uk/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=2402. I'm not sure if it can be treated but someone with more experience may be able to help :) |
