Zoo Med Premium Bark for Reptiles

This all-natural substrate is crafted from the ground bark of fir trees, making it an ideal choice for reptiles that thrive in high humidity environments. Its hygroscopic properties enable it to absorb moisture and subsequently release it, effectively creating humidity levels that are perfect for humidity-loving reptiles.

The substrate not only conducts heat evenly, enhancing the overall temperature regulation within the habitat, but it also introduces environmental stimuli that can enhance the animals' well-being. Additionally, it allows for natural digging and burrowing behaviors, which are vital for the psychological health of reptiles.

Its absorbent nature ensures that waste is efficiently pulled away from your pets, promoting a cleaner and healthier living space. On top of its functional benefits, the substrate adds a beautiful aesthetic to your terrarium, reminiscent of a natural tropical rainforest.

Maintaining this substrate is remarkably easy and sustainable. Simply soak it in hot water every 2 to 3 months to refresh the bark, while it is recommended to replace it at least once a year to maintain optimal habitat conditions. The substrate's smaller chips enhance moisture retention due to their increased surface area, providing a more effective humidity environment. Furthermore, these smaller pieces interlock to prevent live food from lingering within the substrate, ensuring a clean and hygienic space for your reptiles.

Proudly made in the USA, this all-natural substrate is perfect for all reptiles that require high humidity levels, creating a thriving habitat for your pets.
