How to use Giganterra Birch Stumps

There are several ways this product can be used.

  1. Place on the warm side of the terrarium or vivarium and use as a standard hide or cave.
  2. Fill the inside of the birch stump with suitable moss and position on the cooler side of the terrarium or vivarium. Regularly mist the moss underneath with a hand or pressure sprayer to create a humid hide or cave. This is perfect for subtropical and tropical species of reptile needing humid areas to successfully go through ecdysis (shedding).
  3. Carefully position your birch stump under your UVB lighting, if your reptile or amphibian is given the opportunity to climb onto the top of the birch stump and closer to their lamps, it will usually provide a beneficial increase in UV index.
