You should consider calling a professional if:
-
Woodlice appear in large numbers
-
You suspect a hidden leak behind walls or under floors
-
You notice musty smells, which may indicate mold
-
Your basement stays damp even after using a dehumidifier
A specialist can detect moisture issues you may not see yourself.
Final Thoughts
Moisture woodlice—or humidity bugs—are harmless creatures, but they serve as a natural alert system for your home. When you start seeing them, it almost always means one thing: your home has a moisture problem. By understanding why they appear and taking action to reduce humidity, you can protect your home from mold, structural damage, and air-quality issues.
They are not a threat, but they are a message. And if you listen to that message early, fixing the problem becomes simple and inexpensive.
