Centipede Control: Centipede Extermination & Removal

Lower entry points on structures provide doorways. Centipedes are between one and six inches in length and the house centipede is between one and two inches long. In the summer, they will lay 35 eggs or more in or on the soil. 

The “ewe” factor plays a huge factor. No one likes opening the closet door to find centipedes. Larger centipedes can bite that may cause light swelling. Most
centipedes are active at night.

Attempting to get rid of centipedes is a terrifying thought in of itself. Getting rid of them can be difficult as they can enter into your home through holes and openings around the foundation of your home, windows and doors. In the spring, centipedes move into your home due to excessive rainfall or ground moisture forces them to seek drier shelter. However in the fall, centipedes will come into your home seeking warm as they look for a protected area to over winter. As with all do-it-yourself project there are always draw backs, some more significant than others. They are often time consuming, ineffective, and potentially expensive. There is also the added concern of mishandling or misapplication when insecticides are involved, which can have negative repercussions such as putting the health of not only you but also the health of your family in danger.
