(Whew!) .. Tis been a while since I've taken a gander [here].
Sorry, folks .. Sure haven't meant to leave you danglin' all this time ..

Altho' I've not ever found these lil roly-poly guys causin' any form of damage to my plants: it could very well be that they 'behave' differently in different regions of the country/world.

I did find this piece of info that may lend some aid to ya .. on the University of Kentucky Entomology web site > http://www.ca.uky.edu/entomology/entfacts/ef439.asp

Hope it helps some ..
