Pill bugs are the little grey critters that roll into a ball when you touch them. They’re land crustaceans, not insects.
They live in damp spots and eat decaying plants. Outside, they’re harmless. When lots of them come into a Burnaby basement or ground-floor suite, it’s usually a moisture problem.
Pest Boss handles pill bug control across Burnaby. We treat the perimeter and help you dry things out.
Give Pest Boss a call if you’re seeing any of these:
- Small grey bugs that roll into a ball
- Lots of them in basements, garages or entryways
- Bugs under pots, mulch and boards against the house
Similar bugs that don’t roll up are sow bugs. See our sow bug and woodlouse pages.
