It is a grey/brown colour which is useful for camouflage and it has a hard, armoured shell over its body so it can protect itself from predators. The woodlouse can roll itself up into a ball when being attacked. The antennae are incredibly sensitive; they make up for poor eyesight. In some species, the female woodlice are completely void of eyesight and use their antennae as a way to see.

∙ 11y agoIf you turn a woodlouse upside down and look at the tail end you will probably see a pair (sometimes 4) of white patches. These are composed of material which. when damp, allows the animal to absorb atmospheric oxygen. If these dry out the woodlouse dies. Some species, such as the genus Armadillidium, are able to roll up into a ball and so conserve moisture. These can live in drier conditions than those unable to form a ball.
