Lapaix Posted May 1, 2007 Share Posted May 1, 2007 Whenever my husband and I return to our maison secondaire, we find the house infested with dead woodlice, which results in two hours of vacuuming to get rid of the bodies!It doesn't seem to matter whether we put down insect powder or not, our house still looks like an insect mortuary!Anyone got any ideas, pleaseLynda Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patf Posted May 1, 2007 Share Posted May 1, 2007 I've seen many types of bugs in our part of France but never a woodlouse. Not yet anyway. We used to ge them in UK. Have you discovered the area of wood that they inhabit? You may need to remove some rotting wood first. Have a look on Google. I found a website that says they breed in rotting wood or piles of dead vegetation outside then come inside to get warm. So you need to seal around doors and windows where they make their entry. Pat.

Georgina Posted May 1, 2007 Share Posted May 1, 2007 Yes you definitely always see them in damp places, but why are they dead? Strange that. Does anyone know if they eat flowers' roots, because I always see them inside the bottom of my tubs.Georgina Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
