If a keeper is setting up cages like what I'm talking about, they would not be lazy, it would simply be impractical to not have it bioactive.

Wait, were we not talking in our own homes for the average keeper? Your argument is now based on zoo sized enclosures?

Yes. I did not say it should be needed for the average keeper, I was simply saying that there are instances where it is helpful to have a bioactive cage. I am doubtless that at least some keepers have their animals in large cages, and I am saying the need for a bioactive cage applies mainly to those individuals. I am not saying a snake in a tub should have a bioactive cage, in that case it is much easier to simply scoop out the poop, as you said.
As I said in my last post, a bioactive cage is only truly beneficial when it's simply impractical to clean the cage yourself.

 Seriously. I'm not trying to raise a mite farm. I don't care if they did eat feces and urates, I can't see that being practical without an insane amount of mites. I'd like my enclosure to stay a snake enclosure, not a mite habitat.
It's already bad enough having girls come over and explain why I have a 10' python and rattlesnakes, I can't imagine having to explain my poo eating mite farm as well....
