If you use rice, use regular long grain rice--NOT minute rice. Minute rice will swell and create an intestinal blockage if they eat it. If you use packing peanuts, be sure to use the biodegradable ones--if they decide to eat them, they should be pretty much harmless, as when they get wet they fall apart so as to not create a blockage. I use the rice for my ferts, I've never had one even attempt to eat it (at least so far) in the past 4-5 years I've been using a dig box for them. I think they like the rice better too, as I can reach in the hole in the top where they enter, grab a handful of rice, and let it "rain down" on them.....they go absolutely NUTS!!!
