Reptile Safe Branches?

[Beazer]

I have been looking around for anything reptile safe. Here in az, quality driftwood is near impossible to find. As far as "safe" branches I am not exactly sure where to start. I would use thick wooden dowels but it just looks boring. I have heard Eucalyptus branches are safe. Is oak safe? If there are any branches you guys can think of that have a 3-6inch diameter, tend to fork, and are reptile safe and wont mold over in high humidity please let me know. I suck with vivarium stuff lol.

Another question is, where can I get my hands on cork tubess? I have been looking for thones that are a full circle, not the ones where they cut a huge slit. Thanks guys.

as far as the branches go ive been told you can pretty much use any thing that isnt poisonuos. you would just soak them in a 10 part water one part bleach solution for about 8 hours then let it dry out. and then bake it for alittle bit. but you might wanna check with some of the more experienced people cuz im not entirly sure this is a safe alternative. :chin

Thats what I did a few times until I was fined for "Criminal Damage" 250 euro for a branch!I think I will stick to shop prices!
