- Add ‘Litter’ To The Substrate --- When the pack of 30-pieces of dried 10” leaves by SunGrow is spread on the floor of the vivarium, see your beloved pets crawling and leaping over them. With the passage of time, it will crush the leaves providing you with a visual barrier and hide for the inhabitants. Once it breaks down, it will release elements that will prove to be highly beneficial for your overall reptile’s development.
- Provides Thermal Cover For Hibernation & Estivation --- Reptiles have countless strategies to deal with the extreme climatic conditions. Leaf litter keeps the soil temperature consistent and shields your pet against cold and heat. Snakes, chameleons, bearded dragons, geckos, tortoises, and others are good diggers who can burrow deep into the soil to reach their leaf litter. See your pet making room for himself in the midst of the litter for spending and surviving the extreme conditions!
- Improves Chances Of Reproduction --- If you want to create opportunities for a thriving habitat, you need to spread the SunGrow leaf litter in the terrarium setup. As they feed off the decaying litter, the leaves offer them a better and increased chance to reproduce. The breaking down of the leaves influences the pH of the soil thereby creating circumstances for breeding.
- Sustain Healthy Population Of Microfauna --- Microfauna such as isopods and springtails thrive over a period of time. The leaf litter attracts centipedes, beetles, millipedes, worms, spiders, and slugs that serve as their food source. Consequently, together, they help in keeping the vivarium clear. The breakdown of leaves also aids in plant growth.
- Keeps Their Scales Out Of Dirt --- As reptiles live in such an ambiance where dirt sticking is a very common occurrence, you need to take measures being their parents. This sticking of the dirt causes unnecessary stress and health issues in them. Adding a thick layer of leaf litter over the substrate will give them a lot of room and restrain themselves from getting muddy in the mud.
Reptiles being cold-blooded animal species need to stay warm for optimal health. For their upkeep, humidity sources in their enclosure are required. Spreading a thick layer of SunGrow Leaf Litter over the substrate is one such way. In this pack, you will receive 30 dried leaves that you need to spread on to the bottom of the floor. These are said to be magical leaves with healing properties. You may see the top getting dried, but the bottom of the litter stays moist.

The reptile species have an instinctive fear of prey. Whether or not, any other reptile is present, you need to provide them with shelter and hiding spots. They camouflage and hide under the leaf litter.

The presence of leaf litter attracts caterpillars, bugs, and worms creating a more diverse habitat. Over time, the dried leaves will start decaying and provide a moisture-retentive soil where plants can thrive. You may prepare tadpole tea by boiling the leaves for 5-minutes. The water will turn into a yellow-brownish hue and will help in lowering the pH level of the soil and benefit the overall health of these cold-blooded reptiles.

It's not just snakes and other reptiles that benefit from leaf-litter; box turtles, butterflies, insect-eating birds, and many other wildlife benefits from this mini-ecosystem. You may also use these leaves for fun DIY crafts such as designing ornaments for Christmas tree or use it as a stuffing for a scarecrow.

As soon as you receive your packet, rinse all of the leaves and boil them for 5-10 minutes prior to adding them into their tank. Since we procure our leaves from genuine sources, but the leaves have traveled a long distance to reach you and a precautionary step would prove to be beneficial.
