Does sphagnum moss get moldy? Should I moisten it every day? How often should I switch it out and put in new moss? This is for an indoor enclosure for a Red Foot.
Thank you!
Also... should I be concerned about insects? I bought the Mosser Lee organic sphagnum moss. I also read online (sometimes I read TOO much....) and I found info regarding a fungal disease associated with the moss. "Sphagnum moss can be a source of a chronic fungal disease called sporotrichosis, which enters the skin through scratches and abrasions". I worry too much sometimes! LOL! Is this stuff okay to use?
