Alert! Roly polies detect lead and eat it. This means you should be careful when you see lots of them because it can mean the place is lead contaminated. Stay safe! ☺️

Pill bugs are land-dwelling crustaceans that breathe through gills like their water-dwelling cousins. They must stay moist, so I often find them underneath boxes and buckets. One study found as many as 10,000 individuals living in a square meter. Originating in Europe, these roly polies are naturalized in North America and are an important part of the soil ecosystem - breaking down woody plant material so we don't live amongst every fallen tree that ever was. #rolypolies #pillbugs #armadillidiumvulgare #beneficialbugs #leichtlunch (at Delaware County, Pennsylvania)

When your body grows so fast you don’t realize you aren’t a 4lb handful of kitten anymore and you still love to sit on meowmie’s chest like it ain’t a thing. #immobilizethehuman #rolypolies #giantkitten . . . #oliveandryevids #catvideo #cutecatvideo #cute #cats #snapchat #funnycat #funnycatvideo #buzzfeedanimals #boredpanda#funny #cute #cutenessoverload #thedodo #weeklyfluff #catsofinstagram #tricorncats
