The substrate should be simple to allow easy cleaning.  Newspaper is perhaps the best substrate as it is disposable, cheap and can be used for the majority of species.  Other commonly used substrates include carpet,  Astroturf, pine and ash wood shavings.  Shavings of woods such as cedar, which are high in aromatic compounds, should be avoided because they are toxic.  Items that can be ingested e.g. small stones, gravel, corn cob bedding, should also be avoided.  Peat and gravel look attractive but hide urates and faeces.  Burrowing species such as sand boas require a substrate (such as sand) in which they can burrow.
