They live on organic material, so if you have a vege garden you'll lose some vege's, and your general plants might get affected but unlikely. There' a bit of a problem for crops.

The main problem for me is inconvenience - I like having a clean house inside & out ... if you walk across our patio right now you'd squash about 50 in a single pass of 5m, leaving a mess & stench (they stink when squashed). Not good especially when I normally walk bare foot out to my observatory to do astronomy.

A few wouldn't be a problem, it's when they're covering the ground enough that you can't avoid them it's a problem. I should take a photo sometime and post it, maybe tonight.

Roger.
