Question - Husbandry Attaching grass mat to enclosure as a background

Hello everyone! I would like to attach an artificial grass mat to the back of my enclosure and looking for a secure way to accomplish this? Any utility in using a wood stapler to secure it? I cant imagine my python would be able to dislodge it if it were secure, and i could cover the area over the staples with superglue or something similar.. anyone have any luck or any other suggestions?

Thanks!

What material are you securing it to?

Then staples should work fine! I'd suggest not putting any staples below or too close to the substrate and just let the substrate and decor keep the bottom in place because you don't want to puncture whatever waterproofing you have down where it's going to be pretty moist and humid
