Anyone else have a major wood lice problem

Ever since the weather warmed up every time someone has either a bath or shower a few hours later we get quite a few wood lice in the bathroom. It was the same as last year I think its down to something to do with the moisture as they arent there unless you use the shower or bath.

Somebody said they will be coming in from somewhere but cant seem to find out where.

Has anyone else had this sort of problem, its embarrasing as our youngest keeps saying we have cock roaches in the bathroom :oops:

Kids (they are definitely wood lice lol)

We have a ground floor bathroom, so are regularly troubled by spiders the size of dinner plates and the occasional field mouse, but wood lice? No, not as yet. Yours must have found a lovely damp dark corner somewhere - under the bath perhaps? DD

We seem to get them in the winter, they seem to get in under the door and we have them in the lounge. They congregate behind the settee's so the cleaner has to vaccuum behind there every week. But don't get them as much in the summer months.

We don't have wood lice we have silverfish. I used to see the odd one in the shower room which is downstairs but now they are on the stairs, in the upstairs bathroom and in my dining room. There's not a lot of them but its still not nice.

I think that it must be weather related.

Hi Jayne, we get the silverfish as well! weird little creatures aren't they!! They come up from the vents as we have underfloor heating in our house.We get them mostly in the kitchen and utility room. We don't get alot of them but when I see them they drive me mad, I go round on my walking crutches trying to splat them!! Amanda, (bubbadog)
