Answer:

I've used spaghnum peat moss from Home Depot for years. It looks just like dirt. I have some burrowing tarantulas which I use the spaghnum mixed with sand. I moistened it slightly, and packed it down real well. My tarantulas have dug some pretty nice burrows. I can see them through the glass.
