Aha! Picture proof. Had I a camera with near-microscopic capabilities, I'd show its nasty little mouthparts chewing.

Pillbugs eating a hosta

Taken on 22nd November 2008, Lincoln UK/ This is the only Pillbug in the British Isles, it can grow to 18mm long. This one was on a pot I had brought inside for winter.

This one had trouble uprighting itself once on it's back, although it had initially rolled in a ball. Very similar to a Pill Millipede, which has 17-19 pairs of legs as opposed to 7 pairs.

The head is almost like another shield.

This was quite large and very black, at first I thought it was a Pill Millipede until I checked the closer shields at tail end and the number of legs.

Face on. Once I had it on it's legs it had trouble staying there, I noticed it had parts of some legs missing. I put it in a safe place outside.

this is what I think is a pill bug the kids on our street love to catch them or it is a picture of my cat
