ProRep Straw Bedding 10 Litre

Provide a safe, natural, and highly absorbent environment for your reptile with ProRep Straw Bedding. Crafted from 100% natural, compressed straw pellets, this high-quality substrate is an excellent choice for reptile owners across the Ireland & UK looking to create a comfortable, arid habitat. It is perfectly suited for tortoises, as well as many large snakes and lizards originating from dry environments.

Made from post-harvest straw, these pellets are completely non-toxic and designed to soften into a fibrous material when dampened. This dramatically reduces the risk of impaction if accidentally ingested by your pet, giving you complete peace of mind. The highly absorbent nature of the bedding helps to manage waste and odours effectively, providing a clean and hygienic base for your reptile's enclosure. Simply spread an even layer of 2.5 to 5cm across the bottom of the vivarium for optimal comfort.

• Highly absorbent to effectively manage waste and reduce enclosure odours

• Pellets break down harmlessly when wet to significantly reduce impaction risks

FAQs

Which reptiles is this straw bedding suitable for? This natural substrate is ideal for species originating from dry, arid habitats, making it a highly popular choice for tortoises, as well as large lizards and snakes.

Is it dangerous if my reptile accidentally eats the pellets? No, a major benefit of this bedding is that the compressed straw safely breaks down and softens into a fibrous material when it comes into contact with moisture, significantly reducing the risk of impaction if accidentally ingested.

How deep should I make the substrate layer? For optimal comfort and absorbency, we recommend spreading the straw bedding evenly over the bottom of the enclosure to a depth of at least 2.5cm to 5cm (1 to 2 inches). Ensure you spot-clean daily and replace completely every two to three weeks.
