Perlite Terrarium With No Wire Mesh?

My friend has an aquarium for a terrarium with a layer of damp perlite for humidty. She does not have a wire mesh and she wants to birth her cakes now. She thinks that perhaps the wire mesh is not really necessary. Besides, the cakes might get a little moisture boost this way, right? There is no H2O2 in the perlite because she is afraid that may damage cakes sitting directly on the perlite. Is it necessary to have H2O2? Peace, Persnicket

Don't lay them on the perlite. Use jar lids or aluminum foil. RR

I have read that you can place them on the perlite for a day after each flush. Is that a bad idea?

Just use the foil or lid it helps keep things clean and manageable. GL
