Default Insects.

Hi,
Bizarre this but keep with me!
It sounds like a joke but its not.
We have a problem with woodlice!
Our loft seems to be full of them.
They congregate on the loft hatch.
Whenever you drop the loft hatch down
showers of dead woodlice fall out.
There seems to be no evidence of any in
the loft elsewhere and the hatch has
an insulated polystyrene backing...
Could it be to do with moss on the roof.
Any advice?
Thanks,
Matthew


It could be but you'll never know. Woodlice are great opportunists. I found
one in the sitting room yesterday, there's nothing for them there!

They're not insects, by the way, they're crustaceans - like lobseters :-)

And they're not a problem. They're obviously not finding anything to eat if
they're dead when you see them.
