How does the pH of soil effect woodlouse slater?
Woodlouse prefer more basic pH because they excrete ammonia which is alkali.

What flying insect that looks like a GIANT fat bee is at least 4 inches long?
It is called a Cicada Killer.
They are rarely a danger to humans and it is even rarer for them to sting. Do not let their name fool you, the only thing they are a danger to is other insects. The name is of course very misleading, much like "Killer Whales" which are actually very passive.
If anything, the Cicada Killer is just curious about humans.

Like many beetles and other insects, ladybugs have tiny hairs on the ends of their legs that grip surfaces. The pads on the ends of the legs (arolia or pulvilli) also have a slight adhesive grip.

Why does Arthur the ardvark stink?
because he wears nerdy glasses and he needs better frames for his glasses. well, in 1980, King arthur bumped into a nanny and granny which made his knuckles cracked.
Excerpt from this journal published by the rolling sons.
There were once two grannies who were complete opposite. One named Nanny and the other, Grammy. Nanny loved to hopscotch and Grammy loved staying at home. They made their way back from a promenade, and not knowing they were neighbours, Nanny thought Grammy was following her. Grammy put aside her cane and started walking faster. Nanny started to run too because she saw smoke from her house. Grammy walked even faster, and she pulled her roller blades from her backpack and began rolling, and her cane was flying like a cape. She was so fast that anyone would've mistaken her for the wind. Nanny had an urged face because the smoke was spreading almost everywhere. Then the smoke expanded twice blocking her sight so she crashed into Grammy. Grammy fell and her knuckles cracked. She said ouch. Nanny said ouch. After, they ran home. As they ran home, they forgot about their important appointment with Dr. Fish and Dr. Shrimp respectively. Nanny remembered that she was supposed to see Dr. Fish and so she luckily pulled a pair of rollerblades from her emergency kits and rolled down to the hospital at top speed, surpassing the pedestrians and she crashed into a car like a squished bug on the window. Her knuckles cracked again. She said ouch. Nanny walked at a dying pace to avoid possible injuries so she didn't crack her knuckles but her whole body cracked. She said ouch. She died. Grammy slowly walked to Dr. Fish for she saw what happened to Nanny so she got a free exam. Then remembering that she forgot to extinguish the fire, she ran back home, and she saw her house burning. She said a prayer and took over Nanny's house to pay Nanny's mortgages and she also felt sorry for her knuckles and tragic accident. The moral lesson is to take things slowly so you can avoid tragic accidents.

What are the competitors of habitat for checkerspot butterfly?
Depends, I suppose, on which checkerspot you're talking about. It's not so much competition for habitat per se for the Baltimore checkerspot, but deer are notorious browsers of the caterpillar's food plant, turtlehead, and often browse out all the plants unless they are protected. "Competition" for habitat really doesn't rate as a problem for the checkerspot species I'm familiar with.
because they don't have teeth and they don't sting but they are shy

They can be on the ground...somehow you'll have to break the cycle. I had a spray that interrupted the gestational cycle of the fleas for use in the house. However, not sure of using it around the chickens. There are some things you can use on the dogs, too.
Answer
Chickens will actually eat the ticks, and keep them down, but they can carry fleas and lice and mites. They are really hard to get rid of. It requires consistent battle for quite some time. If you let up, they will come back full force.
Put diatomaceous earth in the places that the chickens dustbathe.
paint their roosts with insecticidal paint.
Clean the entire chicken coop.
Fumigate it. Make sure that the chickens are all out, and that there is enough time for it to air out before they get back. Check the can.
Sprinkle diatomaceous earth or other pesticide all over the floor and in nesting boxes before putting down hay.dust chickens with DE or other safe pesticide.
Keep doing all this for at least 6 mos.
