Interestingly, pill bugs are crustaceans and share more similarities with shrimp and crayfish than they do with insects. In fact, they are the only crustacean adapted to live on land. However, that doesn’t mean they’ve fully given up their aquatic roots, as they require moisture to survive. Pill bugs are also called roly-polies because of their ability to roll into little balls when threatened or disturbed. They typically live outdoors with sowbugs, millipedes, and earthworms among decaying leaves, mulch, and rocks, but pill bugs may find their way indoors at night. This can cause issues for homeowners and business owners who live in humid climates, have damp basements, crawlspaces, or live on the first floor of a building.
Pill bugs don’t damage structures or spread disease but are still a nuisance if they have infested your home or business. Pill bugs can often be found in areas of high humidity, such as around pipes, under trash cans, flowerpots, and crevices. They can gain access to your home through door openings, basements, crawl spaces, and tiny cracks in the building. Once you notice pill bugs in the home, you likely have an infestation on your hands.
Pill bugs can’t survive long without access to water, so a key to pill bug infestation prevention is removing any sources of dampness. This includes promptly removing grass clippings and leaf piles, and ensuring your property has proper drainage. Also, clean up surfaces around your home, underneath sinks, and around trash cans. Seal cracks, doorways, and windows to prevent pill bugs from entering your home. Professional pest control services may also be necessary if you have an active pill bug infestation in your home or your property.
