Woolice in folk medicine

I think what you have currently in the woodlouse article is fine. (I call 'em rolly-polly bugs.) As for finding new information, you are at a dilemma. First, if you want to find American folk remedies employing them, you're going to have to use the common names in your searches. E.g. there are many academic projects to collect the folk beliefs of the Appalachain mountain people, so you can do a Google uni search, but you'll need to search for "roley-poley" or "rolly-polly" and medicine. There are similar projects for the various areas of Africa, but you'll almost surely need to use the common terms for the folks, if you want folk medicine archives. I know of no scientific medical uses of the bugs, but there are plenty of "herbal" and "natural" sites out there that will prescribe just about anything for everything. The second horn of the dilemma is that unless you find information from a scholarly source, your information is possibly going to be rejected as unverified and extranneous. Be sure, wherever you find the information, to either link the site that has the information in the mention (look at the wiki markup for what follows) (e.g. as a folk remedy) (that's a single [ then the URL, space, your text, close with a single bracket]). That will bolster you a bit. Then, of course, you have to repeat the searches if you're searching ethnobotany and ethnomedicine with the scientific names. It's not easy.
