Tropical White Woodlice (Trichorhina tomentosa) – 520ml Culture

Tropical White Woodlice (Trichorhina tomentosa) are one of the most reliable and widely used clean-up crew species for bioactive vivariums. Supplied in a 520ml culture tub, they are ideal for establishing or strengthening the micro-ecosystem within your enclosure.

These small, fast-breeding isopods work continuously beneath leaf litter and within substrate layers, helping to break down organic waste and maintain a balanced environment.

Why Use Tropical White Woodlice?

• Efficient breakdown of leaf litter and organic debris

They are particularly well suited to:

• Dart frog vivariums

• Tree frog enclosures

• Crested gecko bioactive setups

• Invertebrate enclosures

• Planted terrariums

Clean-Up Crew & Occasional Feeder

Due to their small size and soft body, Tropical White Woodlice may also be taken as an occasional supplemental feeder by suitable species, though their primary role is environmental maintenance within the vivarium.
