Hi there, I am looking for advice on dealing with sowbug(woodbug) infestation. I have had a problem for several years now, begining with them eating any and all seeds that I sow, to then eating starters as soon as I plant them (even 4-6"high). now this year they have begun to attack my tuberous plants such as dahlias that arent coming up at all as the bugs eat any shoots that the tuber tries to send up and they dont even reach the surface. Cornmeal was suggested. and I have tried this and it does work but not well enough to solve my problem.Any ideas? short of turning my garden into a chicken run for a few years. (which I might have to do at this point) thanks
