Personally I can't comfortably recommend using moss for hamsters. It's for absorbing moisture and then inevitably releasing it back into the environment, and that doesn't matter if it was previously dried or not as the process still occurs(moss is insanely resilient - the dried stuff can even still grow if it gets hydrated enough). The moisture holding and releasing properties make it incredibly useful for certain other species, but for hamsters that's just one more thing to harm their respiratory health and encourage mold growth.
