We had those big centipedes in the basement all the time at my parents house.I used to just grab 'em right in the middle of the back and take them outside to let them go.They were just too cool looking to smash.
Not a fan of creepy-crawlies. If there's a creepy-crawly in my house it very quickly becomes a squishy-squashy.
House Centipede. Not only do I have a few, but I'm glad to. They're among the most beneficial creatures to man that can reside in your home. They eat the bugs and others that get in without leaving messy webbing and other debris all over the place. Plus they tend to avoid people and live for several years. I had a few who lived in places like my bathroom who would learn my schedule so I only really saw them when I did something unusual. Though in all fairness, I live out in the woods, on a dirt road with lots of trees and hundreds of feet between houses, so I get a lot of bugs here. Also mice in the winter, but that's a different and minor issue.
i may have to train some as my body guards . hate spiders more than anything. even some of the small ones. one day i was on my way home and before i pulled into the drive way (i was sitting in the passenger seat and my bro in the backseat) my little brother yells "Spider!" and i literally opened the door and jump out. *shivers*
We get those at my house too. Mostly in the basement and it doesn't bother me too much seeing as I don't hang out in the basement anymore. I would rather have these guys then spiders. I'm deathly afraid of spiders. If I see these guys I can easily get a paper towel and deal with them. Spiders on the other hand scare me so bad all I can do is point make some scared noise and hide behind my little sister lol.
Actually that's a wind scorpion. I see them near the end of spring into summer at my house. That lil bugger right there I saw in my garage one day while taking out the trash.
Oh my god.... I would die... I would just die. My poor heart would give out at the very sight of that monster.
I hate when house centipedes are in the bathroom. Just be showering half asleep, look up, and BAM! There's one on the ceiling.
to quote a famous drill sergeant "holy jesus, what is that?" "WHAT IS THAT!?" "WHAT THE F#$% IS THAT!?"
Yea, silverfish/House centipede..whatever Had tons of these in out old house at Fort Monroe. Scared the heck outta me.
