Pill Bug Control

Pill bugs are between 1\4-5\8 inches long. They are oval-shaped and become round when they roll up. They are easily recognized by their back, which is made up of seven hard individual plates.
They do not bite.

Signs of Infestation

Pill bugs typically enter buildings through door thresholds, especially homes with sliding glass doors on the ground level. Seeing a pill bug in the home usually means that there is a large population outdoors. Pill bugs do not survive more than a few days indoors without moist conditions and a food supply.

The key to getting rid of pill bugs is to eliminate the moist sites that make survival possible. Additionally, remove piles of grass clippings and leaves around the property. Store firewood off the ground and away from the home.

If you need to get rid of pill bugs that have already entered a home or building, a vacuum cleaner can aid in their removal. If pill bugs continue to be a problem, contact us to treat them.
