The more commonly used name is sow bug or wood lice, but they have more than six legs, so they're NOT insects. They are, believe it or not, crustaceans. See the wikipedia link below. The people who said they are insects are very wrong.
My daughter had to catch 20 insects for her class and what she got included wasps, bees, crickets, grasshoppers, butterflies, moths, walking sticks and cicadas.
Also, spiders are not insects, they are arachnids.

It takes a pillbug 300 and sixty 5 days to be an person and can stay as much as eight years. they are useful in that they wreck down organic and organic count yet on social gathering they'll attack flora. They thrive in heat moist environments so which you're able to ought to allow the section dry out some.

I don't know, but try tasting them. Insects usually taste a bit sweeter.

not really, please be careful!
Last year a poor soul squashed one of these critters and an hour later was devoured by an angry hoard of 'em.
