Exo Terra Bug Starter Kit PT2249 | Small Invertebrate Starter Setup

The ET Bug Starter Kit (PT2249) is a ready-to-go housing solution for small invertebrates — ideal for first-time keepers or anyone setting up a simple, functional enclosure without the guesswork. Everything included is chosen to meet the basic environmental and behavioural needs of small bugs, spiders, and similar invertebrates from day one.

What's Included

• Faunarium enclosure — portable, easy to clean, and designed for good visibility
• Plantation soil substrate — suitable for invertebrates that benefit from a naturalistic, moisture-retaining base layer
• Amapallo artificial plant — provides cover and enrichment without the maintenance of live plants
• Wet rock cave — offers a humid hide, giving invertebrates a retreat and supporting natural sheltering behaviour

Enclosure Design

The faunarium at the heart of this kit is lightweight and portable, making it straightforward to move, inspect, or clean. Clear walls give an unobstructed view of the inhabitant — particularly useful when observing shy or nocturnal species.

Suited To

This kit is well matched to small invertebrates such as stick insects, beetles, spiders, and similar species commonly kept in the UK hobby. The included components address the core requirements of substrate, shelter, and decoration without overcomplicating the setup for a beginner.

For keepers starting out with invertebrates, the ET Bug Starter Kit removes the uncertainty of sourcing compatible components separately — everything works together straight out of the box.
