I'm not sure about the digging part, but do u have enough hiding spots? clean regularly? Also u shouldn't have Freddy in sand, it may lead to impaction, which is NEVER a good thing, too risky.

If you want to stop him from flinging sand everywhere, your best bet would be to just replace it with something like paper towels or tiles. They can't fling those as easily lol.

Also, make sure he has plenty of places to hide. Mine always have a hiding box (baby wipes box with a hole cut in the side or top for them to crawl in and out of) and least 1 dooter tube (the cardboard center of a papertowel roll). hehe using those also cuts down on my trash.
