Symptoms

Woodlice will not actually damage wood unless rotten. They scavenge on rotting vegetation and are often seen in compost heaps. They may also feed on some soft plant growth, such as seedlings or strawberry fruits, and sometimes enlarge damage already begun by other pests.

Spot them

What Shoot members say...

"This site is brilliant. I'm so impressed with how quickly new plant requests are added. And the monthly "chores list" is so helpful. I've really enjoyed planning my new border on it. Later I'm going to add my allotment. Can't wait!"
