I have to put mosquito repellent on my kids when they go outside. After the repellent has dried are they fine to get inside my sulcata enclosure? I haven’t be letting them, just curious if it would hurt.

I think it’s fine.... simply because I can’t step outside without spraying down. I have a can of off outside every door and I spray heavily. So all three of my tortoises have been exposed MANY times... no harm done:)
