Hey tortoise enthusiasts!
So my tortoises indoor enclosure has tiny slugs and tiny white bugs. Is this ok for my tortoise? I read that slugs are fine, but I'm really concerned about these gross white tiny tiny bugs. There are a ton of them! My first question is, should I get rid of them. I've been looking on this website and seen "bio active" substrate, not sure if my situation is what they were referring to but is this a good thing or bad thing. If its bad, i know its highly difficult to get rid of them and the ways to do it, but should I try??
and if any of you were wondering what the substrate is, it's a mix of topsoil and sphagnum moss. I would love any advice or opinions!
