Use it for 1 of my bps, our red eyes, retf's, our pac we rehomed(it was the devil, MWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEH! CHOMP!), our wtfs and other snake soon. Found a recipie a while ago on google that mimics joshs frogs blend. Yeilded a bunch. Like waaaay too much a bunch. But its good to have soil to start your viv plants in. Still added iso's tho. Im sure i picked up the rest of my buggy crew from the native plants i use. Butit works well. Remove large poo doo bombs, kinda aggitate and repack it from time to time and let it go. Heck i even got small earth worms lol. However i also do weekly moisture and ph tests to be safe.
