These little critters mainly eat decaying plant matter and other decomposing materials, making them great decomposers and good for the ecosystem as they can improve soil quality. But in large numbers, they can be a nuisance as they start consuming new roots, lower leaves, seedlings, and even fruits and vegetables.These isopods molt up to a dozen times in their lifetime, and the average lifespan of a roly-poly is between two and five years. Pillbugs have many unique adaptations. They have an exoskeleton with plates. They are not able to bite or sting, but many are able to roll up into a ball for protection. Diatomaceous earth is a safe way to desiccate or dry out pill bugs, therefore killing them. Spread diatomaceous earth along the edges of your planting beds where pill bugs like to live. If you find any rolly-pollies in your home, that is a sign that you have a moisture problem that needs to be addressed. Once you remove the excess moisture from your home, the rolly-pollies will be no more! However, you may see more or less rollie pollies based on the environment, specifically dryness and soil quality. The drier the season, the fewer pill bugs you'll likely see. : Pillbugs are eaten by birds, centipedes, spiders, ants, amphibians, and most other animals that eat invertebrates (animals without a spine or backbone).
What is wrong with being made in Mexico?? My Ram truck was made in Mexico. My Chevy V8 350 engine was made in Mexico. I guess John Deere Lawn tractors are made in Mexico? I get it now the problem is we don't make these made in USA brands in the USA any more.
