Heating Up Outside Wood

I have a huge piece of driftwood (too big to put in the oven), so i threw it in the bathtub and poored a ton of boiling water on it and held it under water for about 20 minutes, will that cut the cleaning standards? Also I went along all the cracks with a knife and cut out the spider eggs and leaves. and no I haven't put it in the viv.
 
A little bleach mixture soaking, followed with a vinegar mix, followed by a through hosing should do the trick. I doubt any bacteria or potential pathogens will survive that. "Clean" dirt isn't a problem. I'm personally not a stickler for absolute sterile environments for snakes. Clean, yes.
 
Gracias elrojo, I hope boiling all that water wasn't a waste of time....heating a half a bathtub to boiling water was too excessive i think
 
a vinagar mix is water and vinagar i usualy put a little vinagar in like a cup or so and that does good
