I’m getting mixed results looking it up; is Soleirolia soleirolii toxic? Mainly asking because I want to know if it will be bad for isopods to possibly nibble on.
Edit; I’m now also curious about Oak Leaf Creeping Fig because places say it’s toxic to pets. I’ll probably end up putting some isopods into containers with each to see if they die from them if I don’t get any solid answers.

A friend has one in her paludarium and she has to put it in a harder to access place because her isopods would mow it down, shouldn’t be toxic, it also makes really good leaf litter cause afaik their leaves fall regularly so it’s a great snack for the little guys!
I had Ficus pumila ‘quercifolia’ with my pods at one point, but they didn’t even care to nibble it.
Pets usually refers to mammals. Insects don’t have the same responses to the same chemicals as mammals. And isopods are clean up crew. Their body is designed to eat almost anything. ☺️
