Hi guys. Quick question, is there a difference with the aspen sold for hamsters as opposed to the aspen sold for snakes n reptiles? Reason asking is because I can get a bigger bag of hamster aspen for a lower price. But I want to make sure its the same and safe to use for my corn.....which I will be getting tomorrow!!! Yayyyyyy!!:crazy02::crazy02::bird:
 
I used to order aspen from Bean Farm but got tired of the bugs that were ridiculously invasive in the aspen sometimes. I would have to either freeze it or use pesticides like mite spray to get rid of them (although they're not actually mites), and I don't like to use anything like that around my snakes.
So we recently started using the shredded aspen from pet stores (for rodents) and have had wonderful luck with it. I personally think the quality is better. I'm not sure why but it seems to mold less when it gets wet and I have yet to see any bugs in it.
