NaNO3 and KNO3 (5 g salt/kg) decreased the isopod feeding, growth and survival.
Nitrate is most probably the main cause of decreased feeding and growth of isopods.
NaCl does not affect the isopods up to 5 g salt/kg leaf exposure for 14 days.
Isopods prefer to spent time on the NaCl spiked soil over the non-spiked one.
