| I live in a basement appartment in MA. Recently, we have had ALOT of rain. I think this has caused a sowbug outbreak in my home. I found 2 this morning (possibly alive), 1 a few days ago (dead). Any ideas on getting rid of them?? I dont want to be vacuming up bugs everyday!! |

| Can you figure out where they came in and plug the opening? they can get through a small hole or even through a patio door. They can be attracted to lights on at night. |

| I rented a house years ago that had a billbug infestation. I remember killing many each day, and this went on for at least two weeks before I realized there was a problem. We pinpointed the location where they seemed to be entering, and removed the baseboard. This was a house on a slab. Behind the baseboard were thousands of them. Gross! We cleaned it up and sprayed. Also, we removed plant growth on the outside. The problem was resolved then, but I don't know for how long since we moved soon after. :) |
