    newspaper vs aspen as a substrate

    Hey, so I normally use shredded aspen as my substrate however (due to mites) I have just switched to newspaper and want to know peoples opinion on it as a substrate. I've heard of the ink on the print turning the snakes bellies black which i can see it doing. Also for those of you that use non print paper, where do you get it and how much does it cost? To me it seems cleaner, cheaper, nicer looking, and easier to use. Let me know what you guys use and think thanks.
