you actually need to bake it in the oven for about 2 hours at 200 to 300°F . the reason for this is because there can also be bugs and harmful bacteria inside the wood so this disinfects it. keep an eye on the wood at all time while its in the oven and make sure you removed all bark and excess twigs from the sticks or drift wood as its easy to catch fire. last but not least you need to definitely make sure it cools off before placing in the terrarium.
