    Question Cypress Mulch ???

    I decided to make "natural" looking vivarium for my House snake. You know drift wood, vines, fake plants, natural hides and such. As substrate I decide to go with Cypress Mulch...

    And Here I have Question to all of You using that substrate... Can any of You recommended specific "reptile grade" brand of cypress mulch???

    I want it clean as much as possible without dealing with wood mites and other bugs.

    Thanks in Advance.

    Re: Cypress Mulch

    There is cypress mulch made by a company called SerpentTurf I believe. It is supposed to be high quality cypress mulch bedding. If I remember correctly it is a little on the pricey side though.

    Re: Cypress Mulch

    I have used the Zoomed Forest Floor before and I really liked it. Strangely enough, I can't find the other product I mentioned either, lol.

    Mkay I found that http://serpenturf.com/ Thanks Christie

    Anybody Have experience with that Stuff??
    Looks Nice little Lighter in color that Zoo Med but it is on pricey side 15.50 Sipped for 13 qt vs 16.99 plus shipping for Zoo Med 24 qt....

    Hmm Hold on with Shipping 24qt from zoo med is 27.62$ against 31$ for 26 qt of this stuff.. not that big difference...

    So Any Opinion on SerpenTurf ??
