This brilliant colour is caused by IIV-31 (Isopod Iridescent Virus). I've been checking hundreds of pill bugs over several years for this unusual phenomenon and my persistence finally paid off! Sadly, this total colour change is usually the later stage of the virus; once a pill bug is this bright it generally doesn't have much longer to live. This should occur in any sizeable pillbug population so keep an eye out for it! @dlbowls @finatic @jaykeller @tiyumq @loarie @sambiology @glmory @cedric_lee

What is it that makes them turn blue? That's what I'd like the ID for!
