how do you kill wood lice?

Answer 1

Step on them?

They actually do a good job of clearing up the garden, so if you can avoid it, try not to kill them.

Answer 2

You may kill the woodlice but it is only a temporary measure.
They love dark and damp conditions and even if you kill them all they will soon return. They feed on, (amongst other things), rotting wood, so if you take away the food and reduce the conditions they favour that are available to them, you will obtain a much more effective result than any other method.

PS Intercontinental ballistic missiles do work but they tend to singe any local vegetation and I found them to be rather expensive! Getting hold of an ICBM since 9/11 is also nigh on impossible as B&Q do not stock them.

Kill Woodlice

Answer 4

As they basically only live on rotting wood, do away with that and they'll look elsewhere for their food. Don't kill them just for the sake of it - they're yet another of natures' dustmen!
