Armadillidium Granulatum

Armadillidium Granulatum is an intermediate species of isopod. It can be used as a feeder insect for small animals and other invertebrates but they are also popular as a clean up crew, they will readily consume the waste produced by your animals in a bio-active set-up maintaining a clean and hygienic environment.

Select them if  you have high humidity set ups and/or tropical species!

They can also be kept as a standalone pet in a separate container, a hobby which becomes increasingly popular abroad!
