I had problems with roly polys nibbling on my strawberries, kinda like the ants eating the berries. The solution is diatamacious earth. It is organic and non toxic and you sprinkle it on the ground around the berries and it will keep the ants/and other critters away. I also have to protect my berries from birds, so I keep a plastic netting over them so the birds can't get the berries.

Liquid seaweed applied once a week will help strawberries bloom - all fruit/vegetables too. So you'll have more blooms and more fruit/vegetables!
