Does a rolly polly turn into a maggot?
No, a rolly polly does not turn into a maggot. Rolly pollies, or pillbugs, are crustaceans and belong to the order Isopoda, while maggots are the larval stage of flies. They undergo different life cycles and belong to entirely different animal groups. Rolly pollies remain as is, while maggots develop into adult flies through metamorphosis.
The mouthparts of sucking insects are developed
for piercing and sucking. These pests damage
plants by inserting their mouthparts into plant
tissue and removing juices. Heavily infested
plants become yellow, wilted, deformed or
stunted, and may eventually die. Some sucking
insects inject toxic materials into the plant while
feeding, and some transmit disease organisms.

Yes, pillbugs, commonly known as rolly pollies, can enter a state of dormancy during colder months, but they do not technically hibernate in the same way some animals do.

They become less active and may stay in these sheltered areas until warmer weather returns.

The favorite place of the female Bedbug to lay her eggs is in the folds of your mattress, right where you sleep. The eggs have a sticky coating and clusters of 10-50 Bedbug eggs can be found in cracks and crevices. Bedbug eggs are also deposited in woodwork, furniture, carpet and other fabrics. Bedbug eggs hatch in 6 to 17 days, and the young Nymphs are ready to feast
