I'm seated in 'The Cottage' at Well House Manor - here to start the week's work off before returning to '404' to give a course in a few minutes. The previous owner has left us a spray labelled "Ant and crawling insect killer", and there's a sticky label attached that says "Very Good for Woodlice".

Hmm. I would have thought it was very bad for Woodlice ;-)
