For those who use coir - STERILIZE IT!
    #5621793 - 05/12/06 04:20 PM (17 years, 8 months ago)

Hey there.
I don't use coir for what most of the people here do. I use it exclusively for my animals.

I was redoing a turtle cage and opened a BRAND NEW brick of coir - Zoomed brand I believe. Used it to line the bottom of the cage, and 2 days later what do I see down there?



YUCK. Sterilize that ish!!

I only use it in substrates...

well 10% in casings.

I pasteurize for it for use in bulk substrates and sterilize it when using it in casings.

I believe everything should either be sterilized or pasteurized.

Maybe that critter country stuff is an exception, looking into it...
