Woodlice are land based crusty's, remove the environment and the problem will go. Clean up the leaves, get rid of the potted plants, sort the drains out, cure the damp. Ficam works a treat, I always see loads of dead ones after ant sprays.

i need help...im in a rented house with no central heating therefore the house is always cold! iv discovered wood lice coming down my wall in my bedroom..even two in my bed. The only thing i can think of is a vent which im told is blocked off...its a two story house, im a student EHO so i know about bugs but this woodlice problem is freaking me out and as a result im not sleeping for fear they are in my bed. any low cost solutions for a poor student? theres no cavity wall or harbourage at the vent/wall so its a unclear where the source of them is???any ideas?

Woodlice like damp conditions so your lack of central heating is not helping. The two aims of control would be to improve the damp living conditions and block off entry points from outside. If you can't find these then the removal of damp conditions outside harbouring the woodlice will help. Accumulations of logs, rocks, vegetation, damp outhouses, piled up rubbish etc.

Is your bedroom on the ground floor?

Is the vent blocked off inside or outside?

Do you have wooden floorboards?
