Zoo Med Forest Floor Bed 4.4L | Natural Cypress Mulch Substrate

🌳 Zoo Med Forest Floor Bedding: Natural Cypress Mulch Substrate

Zoo Med's Forest Floor Bedding is a 100% natural cypress mulch substrate designed to create a naturalistic, humidity-retaining environment for reptiles and amphibians.

✨ Key Features and Benefits

Natural Material: It is made from 100% natural cypress mulch and is not heat treated. This makes it a clean and safe option for your animals.

Humidity Retention: The material is highly absorbent and is designed to absorb and retain moisture more rapidly. This helps to provide and strengthen the crucial humidity needed in the enclosure, especially for tropical species.

Natural Aesthetic: It gives your terrarium a natural “forest floor” look.

Encourages Natural Behavior: It encourages natural behaviors like digging and burrowing.

Live Food Control: The mulch lays flat which helps prevent live food insects (like crickets) from hiding in the substrate.

Versatile Use: It is great for live plants and egg incubation.
