I live on the east coast and there is lots of nature all around. I'm wanting to make a bioactive terrarium using the fauna of my region. I am new to the tarantula realm, so I am looking for advice if it is safe to use plants, moss, leaf litter, etc. from outside inside a T enclosure.
I plan to use potting soil and peat moss (maybe some coco husk) as substrate, but with this, I was thinking of maybe adding some of the decomposing leaf litter from a leaf pile in my yard. There seems to be a decent amount of nematodes and springtails crawling throughout it, I think those would be good for recycling purposes. I would probably add some moss and maybe a vining-ground plant or something similar.
Idk, any advice would be helpful and appreciated. Thanks!
