Ive been searching for the perfect substrate for my AFT (if such a thing exists) I am currently using jungle earth. I was wondering if anyone had any ideas on whether or not washcloths would be suitable to use. I have an idea that they would hold moisture well, similar to the idea of using paper towels in humid hides, as well as paper towels in general. The advantage i see to using wash cloths over paper towels is that washcloths are reuseable (just me being enviro friendly and economically smart.) Just throw em in the wash and thats that. Could i wash them with regular scented detergent and skip the dryer sheets or fabric softener, or would the smell of the detergent still come through?
any input would be great.
