Exo Terra Jungle Earth is a completely natural substrate crafted from pine bark, ideal for reptiles, amphibians, and invertebrates that thrive in high-humidity, tropical, or forest habitats. This substrate naturally balances terrarium humidity by absorbing excess moisture and releasing it gradually over time. The finely ground pine bark encourages natural behaviors like digging and burrowing, enabling reptiles to create stable nesting areas reminiscent of their natural environments.

While pine-based products are often criticized in the reptile community for containing harmful volatile oils that may affect neurological health, Exo Terra Jungle Earth undergoes a special kiln-drying process. This significantly reduces volatile oil content, ensuring safety for reptiles and other small pets (you’ll notice minimal pine scent upon opening). Additionally, the heat treatment minimizes bacterial risks, enhancing cleanliness.

Usage Guidelines:

Apply a minimum 2-inch layer of bark across the terrarium base. Adjust moisture by misting or watering based on the desired humidity level.

Monitor humidity with an Exo Terra Hygrometer. Perform daily spot cleaning, use hot water rinsing for periodic maintenance, and fully replace the substrate every 8 weeks or as needed.
