Just thought I'd like to share this with my fellow rep keepers.
Last time I got Megazorb it was around £17 with delivery.

I have stumbled across this little gem selling it at £12.85, with free delivery.

Brilliant IMO

Can you tell me if your bag is dusty? Last time I had Megazorb it was dusty as hell and I had a "surprise" free gift of a ruler and protractor made out of Megazorb in my bag :( Not sure if I had a freak bag. Tempted to try it again at that price though!



A very special super, duper thanks for K :3

Hi Sta~ple,

I have only had one bag. But purchased a colander, to sift through the bag and compact it. This way I found that dust was minimal.

Tbh It can be dusty, but this tends to be more at the bottom of the bag. I had no problems though. I did hate the smell to begin with, but then learnt it helps with ridding the smell of snake mess.

I found that beech chips were more dustier, especially when trying to do a full clean of the vivarium.

I do have 2x 5FT self built vivarium's to fill so this works out much more cost effective and stands up to more than any of the other substrates I've tried. I wont go back, I'll update you when I get the next bag and let you know how dusty it is.

I really like the stuff, its no dustier than wood based substrates. I've had a couple of bags, both been fine and very cost effective for my vivs.

Seems like I was really unlucky. The bag I had there was dust throughout! Made old of my snakes sneeze all the time when he burrowed :p as show here:

Would recommend giving it a sift through with a colander. Not good for anyone with asthma though
