Hi Neil
Although I've never tried this in my own gecko tanks, I have been doing it for years with aquatic plants for fish tanks. There are all sorts of "treatments" that you can find for aquatic plants that are designed to kill planaria and other sorts of inverts. Most of them are designed to be safe even with some of the most delicate of fish, so I can't see why they wouldn't be safe to use on gecko moss. I'd just look at the label to see what the chemical content is. Some of them contain chelated copper, and I'm not entirely sure whether or not it would be all that safe for the gex. I usually soak the plants following the directions on the packaging, then soak them again in tap water to leach out some of the chemical. Hope this helps!

Does anyone have a method of debugging fresh-collected sphagnum
moss? It's very hard to buy good quality sphagnum here, but it is
very common locally.
Thanks,
