Find a productProduct description
This pressed sphagnum moss from Chile is intended for keepers of frogs, other amphibians, reptiles and turtles who need a substrate that holds humidity. It can serve as a full ground layer, a moisture-boosting addition to other substrates, or decorative cover in enclosures and jar terrariums.
Why it matters
- Chilean moss has longer stems than Asian moss, which was the previous standard source.
- The moss is disinfected, which the supplier states does not affect the plant's viability, reducing the risk of introducing bacteria, viruses or microorganisms into the enclosure.
- It contains no pigments or chemical additives and comes from renewable materials.
- It works as a nesting medium for egg laying and incubation, and as lining for a moulting hide, for example for leopard geckos.
