Posted by: anuraanman at Sun Feb 22 15:31:43 2009 [ Email Message ] [ Show All Posts by anuraanman ] I used cypress mulch I bought from the local pet store for about a year. It was marketed as a good substrate for kid play areas (???). Anyway, it worked fine but the one thing I did not like about it was the dust. It wasn't sifted very well and my snakes would occasionally sneeze as a result of getting fine particles of cypress dust in their nose. I'm not sure what others will recommend in terms of disinfecting it but it's not something I ever did. I am now using sifted fir bark chips and while it is a little more expensive, I like it quite a bit better. The petstore uses cypress for all of their enclosures but that's mainly because it's the cheaper option. [ Hide Replies ]
