Centipedes ??

[StevieAus]

Ourselves and local residents have been inundated, fortunately outside by what I would describe as sort of centipede, millipede, caterpillar they seem to appear out of the soil on mass,) I don’t recall seeing them or in these numbers in previous years.

They have a hard skin and believe that they can give a nasty bite, perhaps why nothing seems interested in eating them.

Any ideas please and apart from spraying how to control ?

Even ants and cockroaches?

Well some dead cockroaches and small black centipedes (the ones that bite and terrify Thais) so far.....I was quite surprised at this!

Thanks for your responses I am interested as to why there has been such an “ outbreak” only seen a few in previous years there are just masses of them, maybe cyclical or weather.

Magiclean kitchen spray does too.

 

And it kills ants, spiders, cockroaches, flies, even jin-joks provided you keep them covered in the foam so they can't breathe. And they can't run because it's too slippery.

 

And the good part is, just wipe up afterwards and everything is clean.

Many thanks sounds a good tip
