hi i hope someone can assist. i have this bug throughout a lot of pot plants. i normally find them in the base of the pot plant, underneath near the soil where the water drains out.
they are in geraniums as well as a lot of succulents. is anyone able to tell me what they are and more importantly how i can get rid of them?
i would very much appreciate some help with this!
thank you

Those seem to be pill bugs (woodlice). Harmless to humans and I'm pretty sure harmless to plants. They like damp soil and like to hide under things. Fun to play with as a child.
Edit: and it seems they are actually good for gardeners.
