It's easy to blame yourself, but it could have happened regardless. It's hard to 'get things right' when there are so many variables to cover - substrates/feeding/etc. Even the slightest hint of food smell can convince a garter to eat just about anything (or at least try to). The positive to come out of this is that you're trying new things.

This was a serious issue with my blind one. It made me so paranoid I switched everyone to newspaper bedding.
