Paper Substrate

Has anyone used this substrate from Vitakraft called Eco Bedding?
I bought some to try with Precious. Any thoughts on it good or bad, problems you've had with it?

I would worry about humidity issues.

Humidity needs to stay below 40%. With the paper I thought that I may be able to see when it's too wet around the water bowl. I was using Reptibark and that was terrible, even removing the wet bark twice per day the humidity was still above 50%. It was a little easier keeping the humidity down with aspen shavings but he really didn't seem to like burrowing in it as much. He is burrowing in the paper.

humidity was my only concern so if you meed it low then go for it.
