What Are These Bugs?

[Desmond]

I get these annoying little creatures every summer, moreso when it rains. They come out around the toilet and in the shower and look like miniature armadillos. I just had to wash 3 of em down my drain before I got in the shower and I want these fuggers dead and gone, everytime i sit on the bowl im lookin around for these buggers.

Pillbugs is what they are, thanks Wade. My wife planted tomatos in a pot right outside our bathroom window about a month ago instead of doing a full on gardening this year and i'd venture that that's whats causing them, I didn't even think of that. Now to figure out how to kill the fuckers.

Growing up we always called these things "rolly polly's" (because when you touch them they roll up into a little ball) so it took me an extra search to find their real name and then plug that into Wiki ... Anyway, I didn't read the whole wiki, but they definately seem to be mostly harmless and only an annoyance.

They are harmless, but when you have a tiny bathroom and a tiny shower and you see 4 or 5 of them everytime you walk in the room it gets real old, real quick.

Wow, no "Maximum Football" references yet. I admire your collective restraint.
