This is a question I've had for a while. I have been told that pine and cedar are the two mulches that are dangerous for torts because they emit aromatic phenols (the good smell) which is harmful and toxic in large amounts or in small tortoise bodies. But, other than cypress are there mulches that don't have this problem and are as such suitable for torts? Finding cypress in the west in next to impossible.
So, for all the westerners, what mulches have you found that have been successful. I know that it's possible to sometimes get fir bark mulch out here for instance.
