Some people expressed fear of bringing in parasites and bugs a while ago (re the care sheet)

I add a few scoops of compost and good bugs from my compost pile to my naturalistic set up- all the snakes in it have been exposed to far worse in the great outdoors, and I keep a fairly chemical free compost heap, so its cleaner than most of the vacant lots and tracks I find snakes living.

Might not be a good idea w clean room raised captive born and bred snakes tho- depend on how you feel about letting 'kids' get exposed to dirt and germs.
