Right now I am using eco earth for my Russian tortoise, but lately I have noticed it gets in her eyes and begins to irritate them causing her to rub her eyes a lot. Is there something I can do about this, or do I have to change substrate? And if so should I mix another or just switch it out completely? And what mixes or substrate works best?

I use organic potting soil for both of my Russians and they seem to really like it, my female likes to bury her self in it at night and go to sleep my male doesn't really dig or anything but it hold moisture well and is great if you want to put some plants in there.

I'm not the most experienced russian owner but in my opinion the potting soil is really nice
