What should a diggy box be made of (inside?)

Topsoil? Dry stuff? We only have compost :roll:.

I've seen a few with sand but I'm not 100% happy with that, I think the particles are too small and might get in their eyes/nose etc?

Is topsoil the general consensus?
 
Compost is fine. I sometimes put some sand in but there's no need. I also mix in some pellets and crunchies to give them treasure to dig for.
 
I use topsoil.

My Jack once dug in compost and got some in his eye, which caused and ulcar, and he got a cut on his upper eyelid, which caused an abcess.
This could possibly happen with anything, but made me very wary of compost!!
