Get Rid of Centipedes
When I was a kid, I saw house centipedes on a regular basis, in my dad’s ivy-covered house in southern Minnesota. Then I lived for five years in the less hospitable northern part of the state, and pretty much forgot they existed. I was recently reaquainted with them in my Minneapolis apartment, when I pulled the shower curtain closed around me one morning and found one perched on the curtain, just inches from my hip. After doing a Scooby-Doo run out of the tub, I started some research on getting rid of centipedes. Turns out, it can be a tricky business to get rid of centipedes. They’re rarely eradicated by chemicals alone, so if you want to get rid of them, you might need to begin the process of making your home inhospitable for centipedes. All the steps in that process are detailed in my article on how to get rid of centipedes. Enjoy.
