sterilizing commericial bags of cypress mulch?

Ed,

Do you speak from experience from that wax paper?
IF SO... THAT'S NOT GOOD!!!

Also when baking cypress mulch... make sure you can ventilate your house! If not your whole house is going to smell like stinky mulch. I know my house did and I was not about to air it out when he was only 20 outside.

wow I should start using that. I always thought itll be bad for the snakes. THnx for the wallet saving techniques

Nope, never tried baking cypress mulch with waxed paper. always use it straight out of the bag with no problems. :P

I just started using it and I'm loving it. I don't bake it either straight out of the bag into the tub.

I may have to go see how much it is at HD. I am using Kaytee Aspen in 8 cu. ft. bags for $15 right now.

I buy big bags from Home Depot and use it straight from the bag. During the summer months I will spray it down with Equate to kill off any spiders or wood mites (not snake mites :) ) that might be hitching along. (I do this not because they will bother the snake but that I don't want them in my house :D )
