Golly, this takes me back.
Woodlice are negatively phototactic - they move away from a light source. They have this ability because they possess light receptors (ocelli) that are sensitive to levels of illumination.
In their natural environment, dark places are normally damp places whereas bright places tend to be drier and warmer. Because woodlice need humid conditions as well as dampness, they will move towards dark places which tend to be humid.
In dry conditions, woodlice and other isopods tend to randomly wander about. However, when they reach a humid, damp environment, they become sluggish and congregate in large numbers, often displaying a total lack of locomotion.
This is of course a taxis response rather than a kinesis.
I think that covers the gist of it.
Experimental set-ups to demonstrate this phototactic response are not that difficult to devise. The simplest involve placing a dozen or so woodlice on damp kitchen towel in a high-walled petri dish or similar under normal room illumination. A piece of black opaque card, black cloth or aluminium foil is placed over the top of one half of the dish.
Control experiments using normally lit containers holding the same number of woodlice need to be done at the same time. You would need to record the number of woodlice that have moved into the darkness for comparison after, say, a 30 minute period. Obviously, the woodlice would have to be introduced into the two containers at the same time.
Try covering another container completely with black card etc after introducing the woodlice. What difference does that make?
See if you can improve on my suggestions.
