Instructions for use
Spread the substrate evenly over the terrarium floor. Depending on the species and the desired humidity, Forest Floor can be lightly moistened. Check the moisture levels regularly and remove soiled areas promptly. In terrariums kept very humid, ensure there is good ventilation.
Soiled areas should be removed regularly and replaced with fresh substrate as required.
The entire substrate should be completely replaced at appropriate intervals, depending on the number of animals, humidity and soiling. Ensure that the substrate does not remain permanently wet to prevent mould growth.
Zoo Roco Tip
Forest Floor is ideal for animals that prefer a more humid terrarium climate. For burrowing species, the substrate depth should be adjusted accordingly. Combined with moss, cork bark and roots, it creates a natural terrarium landscape with good hiding places.
