Have they had any effect on the beneficial springtails and woodlice?

To tell the truth i havent seen any of the crew - But i have noticed that the food isnt going off and no nasty mites.
Snails seem more active but i dont know if that is a coincidence
All in all its Happy Tigs Time ;D

I occasionally see a woodlouse, but they do tend to bury themselves and hide. I thought they'd be bigger.......

Ive kept them before, and noticed the adults are only 5-7mm or so. European Woodlice, which work just as well, maybe even better? are much larger, around 2cm or so.

Yes they are the little white tropical ones. Would the British ones survive in such warm conditions then?

I have bought the mites from Biowise. Good price (8.50pounds + p&p) and answered all my questions and emails. It took them 9 days to get here, even though I paid for Airsure, but there was still movement. www.biowise-biocontrol.co.uk/index.html
