I use only heatmats awithout a problem...
if i was rich, then id consider heat bulbs, but nothign that emmits light..its pointless, lol

i didnt do the poll very good lol
i dont use none my room is warm enough with all the reptile i have in it and i find that my tarantula is more active in the dark i put them between the lizards viv now and i see them more out and making webs, but when they on top of the cuboards i dont see them.
so i think its best not to use it in my experince i got 4 tarantulas.
do anyone else find this the same?

I dont use any additional heating or lighting with my T's, my room temp is kept at their required temp and they get plenty daylight but of course i dont sit them in direct sunlight just before someone barks at me!!

None of my T's have heat matts even in the winter. The house is boiling in both seasons due to central heating and old brickwork. In

FREEZING in the winter to BOILING in the summer. Of course this makes sense but it leaves me pretty worried most of the time.

Heat bulbs would be the better choice but there alot more effort, Mats do just fine
