Lichen Sticks – Natural Grazing Food and Enclosure Enrichment
Lichen sticks are a natural, slow-release food source and enrichment item for isopods, springtails, millipedes, and other detritivores. Covered in naturally occurring lichen, they provide a surface for grazing while also adding texture and structure to bioactive enclosures.
Their woody form makes them ideal for creating small climbing areas, hiding spots, and natural-looking microhabitats. Over time, isopods and other clean-up crew species will graze on the lichen and the outer surface of the wood, helping support natural feeding behaviours.
Lichen sticks are especially useful as a long-lasting supplementary food, offering variety alongside leaf litter, rotten wood, calcium, and occasional protein sources.
Key Points:
Provides natural grazing material for isopods and springtails
Adds enrichment, texture, and climbing surfaces
Supports natural foraging behaviour
Suitable for bioactive enclosures and culture tubs
Long-lasting supplementary food source
Usage Instructions:
Place one or more sticks directly onto the substrate surface. Replace once heavily grazed, broken down, or if they become overly damp. Avoid burying completely, as good airflow helps keep the enclosure balanced.
