Unless they are fresh sprouts, pill bugs won't eat the plant. They feed on decaying wood, so they aren't probably just munching in the soil. They won't hurt anything

i just lost my week old healthy auto berry ryder to a few pill bugs this morning, either cover the plants or kill the bugs. those are now my next options....the WILL eat or at least (like my case) munch the leaves and bite through the stem.
