Sounds like a good effects experiment. Obtain one nuclear bomb of known yield and a few million woodlice. Place a sample of lice on each point of a grid centered on surface zero. Detonate the bomb at a selected height/depth. Wait for fallout cloud to leave area of grid, then collect your samples and count living and dead in each. Map this data. Periodically repeat the sample counts and mappings.

Certainly a better experiment than using people or pigs in military uniforms as subjects.
