no, can use it right out of the bag, it will be quite damp as thats how they pack it, gets more in the bag or some rubbish. I use it straight out of the bag for my jungles as the extra humidity isn't an issue, enclosure lights dry it out within a day or two. But if you want you can dry it out in the sun or in a low oven if you're worried about humidity
I just cracked it open and it's full of cockroaches....
hmmm. Can't be certain about this one. As I was opening the bag with a pair of scissors two cockroaches ran out. I saw a third one go into the bag. I just tipped a heap of it on the ground and can't see any so maybe they were just in the crease of the sealed packaging and I disturbed em when I was opening it.
Ok - I just tipped the whole lot out. Nothing there. I'm going with "crease of the sealed packaging" and assuming all is well.
