my trick to the expensive reptile moss stuff is to wash and reuse. I hate paying that much for the moss b/c i know it cannot possibly cost that much to "make". i have green tree frogs and some fire belly toads and thats what i use the moss for, everything else is on that indoor/outdoor carpet. (its black to it looks pretty good w/ my logs and vines and stuff, its a lot easier to clean too- dishwasher :D ) With the moss stuff, I have enough to totally change out the cage and put fresh in and by the time the other stuff has been cleaned and dried out, its time to clean cages again. - just a thought.

p.s.- i clean my amph. cages with vinegar/water solution. and rinse very well, I'm pretty paranoid about toxins and such so i rinse the 'dirty' moss off in a colandar (sp) and then let it soak in the vinegar and then rinse it again and let it dry out.
