Will the isopods multiply and become too many?First, watch and pay attention to when your tortoise usually poops. Then start doing his soaks every day near to that time. Hopefully he will poop in the soak each day. That will help keep the enclosure clean.
Then you need some bugs. Here in the USA we call them springtails, and pill bugs or roly polys. I don't know the scientific name for the 2 species, but somebody will chime in to help you with that.
Anyway, once you get a colony of each bug, they eat poop, urine residue, and leftover bits of food in the substrate.
What kind of substrate do you use? The bugs like warm and humid conditions, so you need a substrate that you can wet down and it holds water. Orchid bark works really well.
They should only reach a number that there is enough food for.Will the isopods multiply and become too many?
Just like ZEROPILOT said. For a while they may seem out of control, but if you leave them alone, the colony will die back to a self-sustaining level.Will the isopods multiply and become too many?
