My bedroom is near a somewhat wooded area and rollie pollies are starting to invade my room at night. Please can someone tell me how to kill them?! (What do i need to buy?)

I had the same problem when I lived by a lake. I think I used diatomaceous earth. Been a long time. I remember I couldnt find anything anywhere in pest books called roly poly. I found out they're actually called pillbugs or woodlice. That may help you find the e answer. Also, they only came inside (in droves) when the weather was very hot and dry. Maybe you can lure them away from the house with a big wet log or something near the woods at the edge of your lawn. Good luck!

Rolly Pollies are eating everything in my garden, including marigolds! They pile up on top of each other when I disturb the soil. And, if not caught they get quite BIG. I ve tried Sluggo. I ve tried beer. I ve tried diatomacous soil. Nothing natural works.

rollie pollies have just as much right to be alive as you do. why not replace the word kill with the word divert. hmmm...i wonder what they eat. once you find out....them sprinkle whatever that may be forming a trail away from your house. lol just a stupid suggestion.

Why would you want to? All they would do is crawl in your ear while you're sleeping. What's the big deal? Kidding. Just seal up around your windows and doors any holes.

You don't. Hug these rollie-like friends.

Well, it sounds like you have a bigger problem...how are they getting in? You have a hole or a crack somewhere near your room.
Other than that, you can use anything that's for ants or roaches to kill them.
