Exo Terra Stainless Steel Scooper
The Exo Terra Stainless Steel Scooper makes spot cleaning a terrarium quick and mess-free. Its angled stainless steel head sifts through sand, soil, and other loose substrates, lifting out droppings, uneaten food, and shed skin while the fine slots let clean substrate fall back into the enclosure. A comfortable grip and a head shaped to reach into corners let you keep the habitat tidy between full substrate changes without tearing apart your animal's setup.
Use it with a loose substrate like Zoo Med ReptiSoil and browse our reptile and turtle supplies for everything else your habitat needs.
Key Features
- Sifts out waste: fine slots catch droppings, uneaten food, and debris while clean substrate falls back through.

- Reaches into corners: the angled head scoops the tight spots a flat tool misses.
- Comfort-grip handle: easy to hold and control for quick daily spot cleans.
- Made for loose substrates: ideal for sand, soil, and other granular terrarium beddings.
How to Use
- Slide the scoop under the soiled area of substrate.
- Lift and gently shake so clean substrate falls back through the slots.
