Zoo Med All Natural Reptile Terrarium Moss Substrate

So my 12 Y/O has been collecting land snails outside, we now have 6 and had to upgrade our make-shift home for them to a more substantial home for them all. This is perfect and I'm happy to say, the snails love it! They burrow down, but are able to go around to get their food. Perfect!

I use this product for my ball python cages. I have two cages that are 4 feet long by 2 feet wide by 2 feet tall and it can be hard to keep the humidity right. This moss has helped improve the humidity in the age and my snakes love the feel of it! It was easy to hydrate. I just wouldn't let any of the moss touch the water in the water dish as it will absorb it and leak out into your bedding. The moss does have a smell to it.

The package includes a lot of moss for a very low price. I cannot clean the moss but that is ok because I can easily replace it with the amount of moss I was given. I really enjoy this moss and my ball python does too. So I recommend this product.

Got this for my tortoise house and my tortoise just loves sitting on these.It is also a good amount for the price paid, and I have seen it being sold for a much higher price at local pet stores. To date, I have not even gone through half the box.My only complaint that knocks it down a star is that I was recently stabbed by what felt like a bunch of tiny needles when I was trying to squeeze the water out of the moss. I then noticed the moss was mixed with a bunch of sticks and twigs. The time I grabbed some of this moss, I did not encounter any twigs, but as i dug deeper into the box, more and more twigs appeared...

Product came quickly and in good shape. In the past I have had issues with soiled or rancid moss coming in the mail, but this pack was nice and dry. I'm not sure if that's a preference for some, but for me it's a must. We use this stuff sparingly for our leppard geckos' moist hide, so having it relatively dry for storage purposes is helpful. It's easy to dampen it with some warm water and squeeze out the excess for a nice damp hide. It's best to keave it just barely wet, otherwise it gets too damp. We pop ours in the microwave for a few seconds to get a nice steam before putting it in with the little ones. They love the warmth and humidity. (Yes, we let it cool a but and test the heat before putting it in their cage). Good product, good seller.

I bought this to use for my leopard gecko’s humid hide. It comes with a lot of moss, enough for a 10 gallon tank. That being said, I really didn’t need that much moss since I’m only using it to fill a hide. However, I feel like this will last a while as long as it is kept dry. It arrives dry and stays wet for a while once you soak it in water. There are some random twigs in the moss (because it’s, ya know, moss) but you can pick those out if they bother you. My gecko seems to like his humid hide and is using it to help shed, so I’d say this works!

First let me say that I purchased this moss to use for my Venus Fly Traps and Orchids. I was hoping to have found a cheap pure sphagnum moss, but that wasn't quite the case. Some moss is definitely there, but there is a ton of bark and twigs here as well which seems to be a filler. There just might be more of the bark than moss. I came across several 5 inch or so twigs of what seems to be some sort of cedar. This definitely isn't the soft and fluffy moss as I was being poked constantly by the twigs while I was trying to moisten the moss. If you look carefully near the upper left corner in the product picture, you can see a twig there, which of course I didn't notice before I purchased. Multiply that by at least 5, and that's what I got.I can't complain too much as this is marketed as terrarium moss and I was a rebel using it for plants, but if it just said "Sphagnum Moss", I'd be quite upset. I do have to say though that the packaging does kind of imply that that's all that's in here though. I can see how pets would enjoy this I guess, but if you want soft bedding for your pets, I'd say turn away. I did go ahead and use it for my Venus Fly Traps, so we'll see how it goes. Definitely not using it for my orchids though.

It’s moss it does the job that I need to do
