Oreo Crumble Isopod 10pk

Woodlice are an excellent addition to any bio-active tank, aiding in the process of cleaning waste. Woodlice are bio-active custodians which feed off the waste created by your reptile pet and its food. Dwarf Woodlice are small and fast and so generally remain uneaten by your pet and will readily breed to keep your bio-active environment clean.

They eat any type of organic material and in the right bio-active set-up, they will breed prolifically and provide an ongoing food source as well as serving as part of the clean-up gang to consume waste and recycle nutrients.

Porcellionides pruinosus “Oreo Crumble” is a species of woodlice known for its distinctive black and white speckled appearance, resembling the popular cookie. These woodlice are commonly kept as pets in terrariums due to their unique colouration and low maintenance care requirements.

Porcellionides pruinosus are native to Europe and have been introduced to other parts of the world, including North America and Australia. They prefer humid environments and can often be found in forests, gardens, and compost piles, such as rainforests and greenhouses.

They are primarily detritivores, feeding on decaying organic matter, making them beneficial for maintaining a clean terrarium environment. Additionally, Porcellionides pruinosus “Oreo Crumble” are social creatures that thrive in groups, displaying interesting behaviours when kept together. They exhibit dominance over others by rearing up on back legs and engaging in “boxing” matches with their front legs, showcasing their complex social dynamics.

They are also known to communicate through chemical signals, which play a vital role in establishing and maintaining the complex social structure within their colonies. These woodlice are relatively easy to care for, requiring a diet of fresh fruits and vegetables along with a moist substrate to burrow in. They are the perfect addition to the bioactive terrarium due to their detritivore nature, which aids in maintaining a healthy ecosystem within the enclosure. The woodlice will help create a balanced ecosystem and keep the terrarium clean.
