Sow bugs, also known as pillbugs or woodlice, are common pests that often invade homes and businesses where moisture levels are high. While they don’t bite or damage property, their presence indoors signals underlying issues that need to be addressed. At Proterra Pest Control, we provide expert sow bug pest control and effective sow bug solutions to keep your property comfortable and pest-free.

How We Safeguard Your Home from Sow Bugs

Sow bugs are small, gray, segmented crustaceans that rely on moisture to survive since they breathe through gills. They’re frequently found in basements, crawl spaces, bathrooms, and around foundations—anywhere dampness persists. Outside, sow bugs live beneath mulch, stones, and decaying leaves, but when these damp conditions are present inside, they can quickly become an indoor nuisance.

Why Sow Bug Control Is Important

Although sow bugs are harmless to humans and pets, seeing them indoors is often a sign of excess humidity or organic debris that could attract other pests or even lead to mold growth. Persistent sightings of sow bugs in basements, bathrooms, or storage areas, as well as musty odors or dampness, indicate that professional sow bug pest control may be necessary to resolve the problem and restore your indoor comfort.
