Is Rolly polly is good insect or bad insect?
They eat tender veggies in my garden and they hide in shady/moist compost heaps or under bricks, any where for shade. I consider them bad even though they do help w/ creating compost soil as you add plant scrapes onto your compost pile. I have to use those camping/cooking fire torch to turn them.
I first water my garden, wait a minute or 2, then I lift my mulch around the veggie bed and I'd see groups of them & I burn them. Be careful not to burn your feet, and have the garden hose right next to you just in case some dry leaves or whatever starts to burn a little. (That's why I water down everything so nothing catches on fire.)
