The message
from feebib contains these words:

...(or 'slater' as they are often called here in Scotland).


Can anyone tell me how to get rid of, or decrease the population of the
pesky things? We are currently experiencing an increase in the woodlouse
population in and around our garden, and indeed and some even have the
nerve to make it into the house. I hate the things

and really need them
all to disappear as soon as...


Why?

So if anyone has a similar problem or can help me with any advice, I'd
appreciate it.
Thank you

simmering woodlice. Apparantly, the stock tastes strongly of shrimps,
which I suppose isn't entirely surprising.
