Woodlice are harmless crustaceans that feed on rotten wood or other vegetable matter in cool, damp areas. They typically live in external areas, such as, underneath stones, clumps of plants, logs, or doormats. Sometimes they extend their habitats into the dark corners of a house. Woodlice don’t pose any threat to humans, and if you find a single louse, it’s probably just crawled inside accidentally. But if you find them in your house in any significant numbers this can mean an underlying problem. Warm houses aren’t the right conditions for woodlice, so if you have an infestation there is likely an area of dampness that you’ll need to resolve too.
