No, you do not need to keep your corn snake's hemp bedding moist. Hemp bedding should be kept dry to prevent mold growth and maintain a healthy environment for your snake.

Always monitor the bedding for cleanliness and dryness to ensure your snake's well-being.

For a garter snake, aspen shavings, coconut fiber, or reptile carpet are ideal bedding options.

If you find tiny white bugs in your snake tank, it is important to take action promptly. These bugs could be mites, which can harm your snake. To address this issue, you should thoroughly clean and disinfect the tank, remove any bedding or substrate that may be infested, and treat your snake with a mite treatment recommended by a veterinarian specializing in reptiles. Regularly monitor the tank and your snake for any signs of reinfestation.
