We prove that in a self-similar wreath product of abelian groups G=B wr X, if X is torsion-free then B is torsion of finite exponent. Therefore, in particular, the group Z wr Z cannot be self-similar. Furthemore, we prove that if L is a self-similar abelian group then Lω wr C2 is also self-similar.
