Prix de vente suggéré:
The Armadillidium maculatum “Zebra” are very popular woodlice in bioactive terrariums, both for their iconic zebra look and their usefulness. They help with terrarium cleaning by consuming organic debris (dead leaves, decaying wood, leftover food) and contribute to keeping the substrate cleaner and more stable.
They thrive well in a well-established terrarium with a good leaf litter and a humidity gradient (wet zone + drier zone).
