There's little to no warning when it happens, right when most of you are asleep.
Millions and millions of 14-legged, pebble-sized creatures crawl out of the Belt Ocean for their annual (?) spawning on land (think Christmas Island red crabs, but purple). They get everywhere; on equipment, in the shuttle, inside sleeping bags and boots ... everywhere. You might wake up to them parading over your face, or find them in your coffee mug. They're mostly harmless, but they might bite if threatened.
Worse, where little critters go, predators are sure to follow...
