Smirk.  I once told someone they are baby armadillos.  We live in Maine.  She believed me.  hehehe 
 
They're probably pill bugs.  I put down boards for pill bugs, slugs and pinchers.  In the morning I clean them up and feed them to the chickens.
 
PS  October 30 - first snow.  Seriously.  I don't joke about snow like I do baby armadillos.  The plants in the greenhouse look great!

I have found small bugs that look like armadillos. They enter the bottom of pots and make a small burro to live in. They are gray in color and 1/8th to 1/4th of an inch long. Can anybody tell me what they are and how to get rid of them?
