I have found that the best way to introduce moss to a terrarium is to go to a local park or out of town and look on the northern base of a tree or fencepost. Simply collect the moss from outside. Then raise it in another container until you are sure that there are no pests or harmful other things that will contaiminate your terrarium and harm your animals. Once you are 100% sure of this, you can introduce it to your terrarium. Simple, and you won't have to pay a dime for it!
