I have the odd woodlouse wandering across my living room, is this bad? Are they dirty?

Doesn't really bother me but just wondered...house is spectacularly badly built a bit draughty so they get in through the cracks I suppose

they are not dirty or dangerous. but they are an indicator of moisture. try to find out where they are hiding so that you can treat the moisture to avoid mould.

urgh I hate them. Keep finding them in my living rooms too - srange thing is we live in a second floor, fairly moder flat. Bug spra and a mini hoover are my partners in crime (grime?)!

We've have them living under the doormat all winter. They're not as bad as the ants that I keep finding enjoying our lounge, or the 3 baby mice dh had to slaughter on Christmas day, or the poisoned one we found when we moved the fridge 3 months later!
