I am wondering if anyone is useing poting soil as a substrate, if so are there any pros or cons to it. If you have a reason why it should not be used I would appreacheate any information you could supply.

Thank you very much.

The only problem I see with it is that the poo is hard to spot. If corns rome in it in the wild, why should it hurt them in captivity?
 
I've had problems with tiny insects in the potting soil. Also, the snakes get dirty (duh!) It's not bad, but I really prefer aspen over anything I've seen yet except for paper towels/newspaper for smaller tanks only.
