I'm not sure about my favourite type of boa since i'm not all that famillar with them.
About the wood. You can buy large pieces and sculptures at pet stores. I believe you can also find some nice sturdy pieces outside. To disinfect it you should probably boil it if it isn't huge and use a low concentration bleach solution and be then rinse thoughouly!!
Hope this helped a bit.

My husband found a tree on our property he liked. He cut it so it would fit end to end in the enclosure (tree is going sideways) and left a piece for a base on one end. He took it to a local golf course and baked it in their big catering oven for two hours at 250 deg. Then he brought it home and put it in the tank. One end is down as the base; the other end is raised and screwed to the top of a log that my DH hollowed out for a hide (also baked). Screwing or other very secure attachment is necessary so the snake can't move the tree/wood around and injure himself. The way this is installed, it's not going anywhere!

I'll try to post pics soon . . . .
