Why Add Woodlice To An Enclosure
Woodlice and other isopods are a fantastic addition to any enclosure.

They can also act as an occasional snack for a variety of reptiles and amphibians, providing naturalist feeding opportunities and behavioural enrichment for your pet.

How To Keep Woodlice
Whilst woodlice act as a clean up crew for your pet, they do benefit from a little extra feeding. This keeps them in perfect health and makes sure they pass on optimum nutrients to your pet should they end up as a snack. Give them a mix of supplements such as sprats and shrimps. As well as keeping your woodlice nutritious and healthy, it can help prevent them from munching on your live plants.
You should also ensure your isopods have plenty of cover, with dried leaves and bark for them to mooch around under.
