If you have seen tiny shrimp-like critters around your garden, on paths, patios, driveways, or inside your home or garage, you may have encountered lawn shrimp. The minute crustaceans prosper in moist environments found around backyards in warmer climates.
Lawn shrimp will usually be found in flower beds, lawns, and piles of decaying plant material, but they are driven from their habitats by heavy rain or overwatering. It is not uncommon for signs of the critters, or dead clusters of lawn shrimp, to be spotted around properties.
