Terrariums: To create a suitable habitat, start with a loose-fitting seal (think cork lids or tank lids placed loosely). Be sure to open it periodically for airflow and feeding.
Culture bins: For beginners, a shoebox-sized Tupperware box is perfect. Adding a mesh vent is a great way to provide airflow without risk. Alternatively, go au naturel and simply open the bin regularly, as recommended by our pals at RDI.
Temperature & Humidity
The Oreo Crumble Isopods are surprisingly forgiving when it comes to their living conditions. With origins in a range of environments, they're fantastic for both tropical and temperate terrariums. If you're worried about the details, not to fret - aim for a temperature range of 70-85°F (21-29°C) and a high humidity rate for the best results!
Feeding Oreo Crumble Isopods
Good news for all the foodies out there: Oreo Crumblers will chow down on just about anything except cookies (real or otherwise...). Their voracious appetites make them a force to be reckoned with as bioactive terrarium cleaners.
