Species Info
General: Pill bugs, scientifically known as Armadillidiidae, are not actually insects. Roly polies are crustaceans, more closely related to shrimp and lobsters than to insects. Pill bugs are part of the isopod family, which also includes woodlice and sowbugs. They are typically gray or brown and measure about ½ inch in length. One of roly poly most distinctive features is their ability to roll into a ball, a defensive mechanism against predators. Pill bugs are detritivores, meaning they feed on decaying organic matter. In nature, they play a beneficial role by breaking down dead plant material and returning nutrients to the soil.
Diet: Decaying leaves, mulch, rotting wood, soft seedlings
