Submerging the block in water gives roughly 4 quarts of moist moss, enough loose material to lay out in a pet snail enclosure. The moss is cultivated on agricultural farmland and in forested areas, then managed to produce a sustainable supply.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eTarget audience\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ereptile-and-amphibian-pets\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSize\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3.5oz\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eItem dimensions (L x W x H)\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e15 x 14 x 1.8 cm (5.9 x 5.5 x 0.7 in)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eItem weight\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e99 g (3.5 oz)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eUnit count\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1 ounce\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\u003ch2\u003eKeeping moss and snail enclosure in condition\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eRemoving uneaten food is the way to keep the enclosure clean, as the care direction for this substrate notes.
