I know some of us (me included) use woodlice as guardians in our cages, to eat microscopic bits of left over food and so on.
From what i've read (Schultz) the spiders dont seem at all fussed by the woodlice and are supposed to leave them alone.
I've long suspected my P. Fasciata of eating woodlice, and today i caught her doing it. Neither of my other (terrestrial) species show any interest in killing woodlice, so perhaps it's natually an aboreal thing to do? Or do i have a crazy pokie?
Anyone else have any experience in this matter?
