10/26/24: We're finally adding a "no beetles" option because we often don't have live beetles available to ship. We apologize for these kits being frequently out of stock!
This kit is the perfect way to start off with CUC (cleanup crew) species that perform well in hedgehog bioactive setups! You'll receive:
- A springtail culture ("lots" - like 100+)
- Your choice of powder blue or powder orange isopods (30+ count)
- A substrate sample containing beneficial microbes to "seed" your substrate
- Optional: Mealworm beetles (200 count)
- A quick guide to adding them to your enclosure and keeping them happy
These are packaged into 2 containers - one with your beetles, and one with the soil, springtails, and isopods.
You can view all our isopod/CUC species available here!
