For a garter snake, aspen shavings, coconut fiber, or reptile carpet are ideal bedding options. Aspen shavings are absorbent and provide a natural substrate, while coconut fiber retains humidity and aids in burrowing. Avoid cedar or pine shavings, as they can be harmful to snakes. Regular cleaning and maintenance of the bedding are essential for the snake's health.

Would a garter snake dig a hole by a house?
Garter snakes typically do not dig holes themselves, as they are not burrowing animals. However, they may use existing burrows made by other animals or find shelter in crevices around a house. They are more likely to be found in areas with ample cover, such as gardens or brush piles, rather than actively digging near a house. If you see a garter snake by your home, it may be seeking warmth or food rather than creating a burrow.
