Question:

Where can I buy vermiculite or perlite?

I am planning on breeding leopard geckos, and many sites I've visited say either of these are good mediums to use. The only problem is that I can't seem to find a place that sells either. Anyone know where I can get some?

Answer:

Hey! Dont quote me on this but vermiculite and asbestos are two different things! People still use vermiculite to this day! Asbestos is the baddy! So if you got vermiculite then don't sweat about it! Just clean it up!
Just vacuum it up. Even if the worst of the asbestos containing vermiculite, you risk is so small, it could not be measured. The risk would be in the range of getting hit by lightning, twice.
