My substrate is driving me nuts.

I have been using an Aspen and Desert Snow mix. Both seem to be working just fine, but they are driving me crazy! Clumsy me always ends up with little aspen shavings all over me, the carpet, the table and everywhere else I don't want it. I am tired of cleaning up shavings from the house.

People have made the suggestion for butcher paper or paper towels, but my picky BP will have none of it! I have tried both, and Belladonna will pull up and crumple what she can and acts stressed (won't hide, ect.) It isn't a good scene.

I am thinking of breaking down and buying ReptiCarpet for her, and I suppose if I have two sheets and cycle them weekly they won't get too nasty... but I had an idea first.

What do you guys think of using a paper based litter like Yesterday's News? Obviously nothing clay or with any chemicals or perfumes - but a simple paper pellet litter... has anyone tried such a thing? What are your ideas? I ask because I buy it in bulk already for my ferrets.
