My snake ate "Forest Bed" - is this bad?

I fed Idunna (BP) in a tub, as usual, and put it back in her cage. She usually stays in the tub, but this time she was reallt restless, and dragged her mouse out of the tub, coating it in Forest Bed as she did (it's a peatmoss/dirt-ish kind of substrate). I put her back in the tub, mouse half eaten, and tried to rinse as much of it off as possible, but I guess she must have ingested as much as I rinsed off. Is this digestable at all? Should I be worried? It's been a day and she looks fine.
