Think twice before smashing that centipede you find scurrying across the basement floor. It’s helping keep the bad bugs under control. Centipedes usually hang out in damp places like the basement and bathroom. During the warmer months you’ll find them outside in cool moist locations dining on pests like grubs and cutworms. Although centipede means 100 legs they only have 30. They use these to entangle their prey. Then use their two front fangs to inject their victims with venom. But don’t worry the fangs are too weak to break through human skin.
