It's that time again, found one those hairy looking centipedes. Any suggestion on how to kill most of them or all. Can't use super toxic stuff, I have a three yr old here. I usually smash them but, you know I can't catch them when I'm sleeping or crawling over my face or something. 😰
I heard sticky strips for mice works, but the bug will just rip it's own legs off to not get captured 😱

Start a vendetta, cap its turf and hope that it's not in an alliance. Damned insects.

Why do you want to kill them? They eat pests.

They also bite, if I could train them to not climb into my bed or my Childs bed then hey, I'd let nature take it's course. I know they love the basement here, so I pretty much know where their nests are. But since I only rent the first floor I can only get rid of whatevers on my floor of the house 😞

centipedes really freak me out. my suggestion is to get a cat. they take care of centipedes, waterbugs and micetizers. all the wildlife NYC throws at you.
