Hi Tom! We're loving the Micro bark and so is our little one. We have one issue though. Water is settling at the bottom and we have no way to drain it. Do you have any suggestions? I was thinking of taking his enclosure outside to drain every 2 weeks or so. The top is totally dry but if I dig...
It is orchid bark made from fir. Orchids don't have bark. It's bark mulch FOR orchids not bark mulch made from orchids. I think. Most orchid bark is fir.

Sweet! And it's SO affordable! Thank you for pointing us in the right direction. So it keeps humidity well? How do you care for it? Stay downstairs? How often? How often should we change it? Etc.
