Default Little White Critters

I have little white critters on my back wall at night. They are about 1/2 centimeter long. some have very long thin tails but not all of them. they eat algae off the glass. They only come out at night. As sone as the lights start to come on they all hide. Any ideas?

Default Re: Little White Critters

probably some type of crustacean. by White do you mean like a white translucent shell? Like almost roach looking?
