Review: Doesn't mold- smells great. - Definitely recommend. Works great for my snakes. Smells fresh and super good unlike other moss I've gotten. And seems to be keeping mold away
Review: This is the best spagnum moss hands down - This moss is clean and very high quality. I got some on eBay that was cheaper but I won’t use it on my carnivorous plants. I only use regular bale peat moss or this depending upon the situation. My moss is alive and getting greener by the day. I plan to use this in a terrarium, too.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Doesn't mold- smells great.
*by L***. on May 26, 2025*

Definitely recommend. Works great for my snakes. Smells fresh and super good unlike other moss I've gotten. And seems to be keeping mold away

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This is the best spagnum moss hands down
*by S***E on March 28, 2024*

This moss is clean and very high quality. I got some on eBay that was cheaper but I won’t use it on my carnivorous plants. I only use regular bale peat moss or this depending upon the situation. My moss is alive and getting greener by the day. I plan to use this in a terrarium, too.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I was skeptical!
*by J***E on April 15, 2023*

I was a bit surprised to see such a small package for a good amount of sphagnum moss!! I had seem some reviews where others had said the same. Since I didn't need the entire amount I broke off only about a fifth of the block, placed it in a bowl and put some water on it. Amazing how quickly it expanded! I kept adding water until I felt it was completely saturated. Wrung it out and let it dry a bit as I wasn't ready to use it right away. Excellent quality moss, love that it's so compressed! Won't take up much space to store until I'm ready to use more! Would definitely buy again!!!
