yes a toothpick is a insulator
A toothpick is a thing, a shape. And condution/insulation is determined by material, not intended use.
Now, most toothpics are made of wood or plastics, and these materials are insulators.
So a toothpick made out of wood or plastic would be an insulator.
Not because it's a toothpick, but because of what it's made of.
But let's assume someone would have a metal toothpick.
Metals are conductors, so a metal toothpick would be a conductor.

Answer
You probably wouldn't put a toothpick around a metal wire full of electrons. You probably wouldn't let electrons flow through it either. My guess is that the toothpick is more of an insulator because it isn't attracted to a magnet.
An insulator. Wood does not readily conduct electricity unless it is a green sapling. Wood that has been made into a toothpick, a ruler or a piece of furniture contains no water and therefore does not conduct electricity.
A tooth pick is an insulator. A conductor would be metal.
Anything made of wood is an insulator. Metals are the best conductors.

Yes

insulator, a conductor is usually metal. thats why the handles of pots and pans are made of plastic and wood
Insulator.

Its a insulator
If the toothpick is made of wood or plastic, it would act as an insulator.
