| If I go asking around for pine bark fines, I'm most likely to get blank stares. I need to know just how fine the bark particles are. How do you describe the particle size to the average counterperson? |

| Dust to corn flake size. Dust to just smaller than a dime. For the gritty mix: 1/8 - 1/4"

| That is smaller than anything I have seen to this point. |

| If you don't need gobs of it, you can get the perfect size fir bark particles by locating Repti-Bark reptile bedding at PetsMart or anywhere reptiles are sold. You may even be able to order it directly through the manufacturer, Zoo Med. I buy the 10 quart bags, but it comes in a larger bag size, too. For the amount of medium I need, it's perfect. It's 100% fir bark, clean and dust-free, too... no sifting required! |
