Useful Tips
PREPARATION Rinse leaves with water to remove any dust or debris before adding them to your enclosure.
LAYERING Spread a generous layer of leaves across the substrate to create a natural carpet.
MAINTENANCE Replace leaves periodically as they decompose, adding fresh leaves to maintain the desired aesthetic and functional benefits. MOISTURE Mist the leaves lightly to maintain appropriate humidity levels, especially for species that require higher humidity.
Ideal For:
- Creating a dense, natural carpet of leaf litter that isopods can thrive in and feed on, promoting a healthy breeding environment.
- Reptiles like snakes, geckos, and lizards that enjoy burrowing and hiding under leaf litter.
- Bioactive setups, supporting the natural cycle of decomposition and nutrient recycling.
