heat mat

Warming pad underneath

A heat mat is a flat, flexible pad that generates gentle warmth, used primarily in gardening to encourage seed germination and root development in cuttings: Set the seedling trays on a heat mat to speed sprouting.

Heat mats also provide supplemental warmth for reptile enclosures and other small animal habitats.

Unlike heating pads designed for human use, they typically produce lower, steadier temperatures.
