I'm not entirely sure what a sowbug is....

Pillbugs and Sowbugs Class Crustacea

Appearance:

The sowbug possess two tail-like appendages at the tip of the abdomen and are incapable of rolling into a tight ball. The common pillbug lacks such appendages at the tip of the abdomen and can roll itself into a ball. This habit is the reason they are often called "roly polies".

Habitat:

Are found under mulch or vegetable debris of all kinds and beneath objects on damp ground. They frequently invade damp basements and crawl spaces and may infest potted plants.

Charming, no?

Yes, it was Yamakita! He was very nice, and expert.

I have just sent him a PM telling him we miss him.
