Get Carpet & Liners for Reptiles in Saint Petersburg

Finding the right bedding for your pet snake, turtle or lizard can be tough. There are several products to pick from. 

The best option for your cold-blooded buddy depends on the species and sub-species. You want to match your habitat's bedding to the reptiles natural surroundings as closely as possible. 

For instance, snakes like substrate made of sand, gravel and stone, wood shavings, and paper products.  

Lizards like to sleep on sand and gravel. 

Desert-dwellers, such as bearded dragons and skinks, like walnut wheels that are ground into a sand-like uniformity. 

Hermit crabs like a combination of sand, silt, and coconut fiber, a mix that mimics what they would find on a tropical beach. Most sand items have a probiotic included that helps to break down natural waste. They maintains your pet's environment clean and fresh-smelling. You can get sand products in a selection of shades, including black, red and yellow, to add a little style to your environment. 

If you have a pet turtle, you'll want to get a substrate which contains riverbed sand, to resemble the turtle's natural surroundings.

Some reptile owners prefer to put a carpet liner in their pet's environment. This can be used with most reptiles and can be cut to fit your tank. A carpet liner provides a soft surface for your reptile's underbelly. You can add various other bedding products, such as bark, wood shavings, or moss over the carpet. Pet carpets are very easy to set up and also help in minimizing reptile odors. They can be removed, washed to clean, and reinserted right into your reptile's habitat.
