Aspen Snake 26l – substrate for snakes

This 26-litre hardwood substrate is intended for keepers of snakes that need a bedding layer they can burrow into. It is made from deciduous wood, which keeps the enclosure floor loose and absorbent between cleanings.

Why it matters

• Low dust: 99.9% of the material is free of dust, which reduces airborne particles in the enclosure.
• High moisture absorption: the substrate takes up moisture at up to 191%, helping keep the bottom of the terrarium dry.
• Clean profile: it is non-toxic, contains no harmful oils, and has no odour.
• Burrowing and insulation: the bedding is heat-insulating and allows snakes to dig and bury themselves.

What it works with

The substrate is designed for snake enclosures of almost any species. Spread it evenly over the terrarium floor at 5 cm for small and medium reptiles, or at 10 cm for large snakes so they have enough depth to burrow. Replace it every 2 to 3 months to keep the bedding fresh.
