Wood lice is much more important than you think

Woodlice is like clean

Therefore, they are the most difficult seeds for woodlice to eat. Japanese scientists focused their research on a small white plant of the Heath family, which is found in East Asia (Monotropastrum modesty). This dragon-like plant eats fungi and has small, tough seeds. Woodlice bring those seeds to places the average bird wouldn’t venture: into damp crevices in the basement, for example, where the plant can feed on plenty of fungi.

In addition to this Asian plant, our Dutch gardens can also be grateful to woodlice. They are real scavengers, eating dead plant remains in the soil and thoroughly moving your garden. Their droppings also contribute to soil enrichment. Their urine too? No, woodlice don’t urinate at all, oddly enough. It gets its name from the persistent myth that eating woodlice helps prevent bedwetting.

It’s a very useful animal anyway, the woodlouse. But don’t eat this food… Eating woodlice for breakfast will not help you get rid of hay fever.
