"Crawl On Lights"

Posted by Bob on October 28, 1998 at 21:09:47:

I have to question how effective this product would be in increasing the beneficial exposure to UV. In nature, UV light comes from above and reptiles receive it through their back, not their belly. I question the animals ability to absorb UV when exposed from this direction. Just because the reptile is closer does not guarantee that it is receiving higher levels of UV.
Anyone have any data to support or reject this?
