In this episode you'll learn a few facts about rollie pollies as well as how to care for your very own colony. Although I didn't mention this I recommend using bottled water to mist your rollie pollies because you don't want them to die from consuming the chlorine in your tap water. If you have dechlorinator then that will work too. Purchase your rollie pollies here if you want different colors: https://bugsincyberspace.com/product/bright-orange-sow-bugs/.
