as of lately, i have seen several examples in which "green powder" was used to create moss and realistic grass in outworlds. this powder can be purchased at art supply stores and is often used with a list of other fake plants such as trees and bushes to create realistic dioramas. creating a cityscape or a miniature forest for my ants to forage in seems like a worth while idea. i would love to know if anyone has tried this and what types of non toxic glue people would recommend.

You've seen the effect in the woodlands-themed GlassBox foraging areas.  Diluted Elmer's white glue is fine.
