Anybody have any woodlice for sale or know where they sell some. Need some to throw in with a scorp colony and with humid kept T's. I have a culture of tropical woodlice, but it won't be ready for weeks. HELP PLEASE :)

Cool thanks. I have tons of them outside my house, but I read a bunch of posts that say you shouldn't use any from the wild. Have you ever grabbed any from outside? Any problems?

I have, no problems. But just make sure they are in a pesticide free area.

Theres no pesticide at my house except for one side where a trecnh was dug to put in termite poison last year. I will make sure I don't get any from that side of the house. Thanks

I just put some sowbugs and woodlice in with my emperor scorpions. I don't think you will have any problems with wild caught as long as they are pesticide free which goes without saying.

I guess that will keep them from having a population explosion. {D {D
