Vermiculite VS Perlite

Just want to know peoples thoughts on vermiculite and perlite, or any other incubating medium you've tried successfully for both snakes and lizards. I've only ever used large grade vermiculite which is OK apart from an occasional mould problem, does perlite stop this?
cheers, Jordo

Stick with vermic, IMO once youve got it sussed for each species its the best. I tend to get pretty much 100% hatch rate most years with all speices of python that I breed.
