No; woodlice are almost exclusively herbivorous, and not cannibalistic.


However, woodlice are decomposers and do eat decaying or rotting matter such as rotting leaves and even other dead woodlice. I have a woodlice culture and I have observed woodlice eat other dead woodlice.

Yes, woodlice (Oniscidea order) eat fruit.

Specifically, woodlice favor prefer dead plants. That is because they play an essential role in recycling nutrients back into the soil through the body processes of eating and then eliminating. The elimination makes nutrients such as nitrogen available in the moistened form by which they can be used by plant roots.

But woodlice also will feed on seedlings and on ripening strawberry plants.
