I use vermiculite and have had great success with it. Just be sure that the substrate doesn't get to wet because this will cause the eggs to grow mold and rot. Also be sure not to press the vermiculite down and dont pack it in. Let it be loose that way the eggs can breath. Other than that you should find it very effective. Hope this helped,
Nick
