5. How to get rid of centipedes

1. Like to live in groups: Centipedes have the habit of living together, big and small. Centipedes in the same group can live in harmony and rarely fight and kill each other. If the habitat is too small and there are too many centipedes, the old centipedes will automatically leave and find another habitat.

2. Centipedes are timid and easily frightened. If they are slightly frightened, they will stop eating, flee from their nests, or curl up motionless. Female centipedes that are laying eggs will immediately stop laying eggs, while centipedes that are incubating eggs will, contrary to their normal behavior, eat the eggs if frightened.

3. They like dark and humid places. Wild centipedes mostly live on hillsides, fields, roadsides, weedy places, or in firewood piles and gaps between roof tiles. They also often live in dark corners such as kitchen corners. Centipede footprints are also often seen under the bricks and tiles around pig pens and chicken coops.

4. They live in their nests during the day and come out at night. The peak of centipede activity is from 8 to 12 p.m., and they usually return to their nests to rest before 4 a.m. It is difficult to see centipedes after daybreak.

During the day, the centipede has poor eyesight and cannot see clearly things that are slightly far away, making it difficult for it to find food and defend against enemies. It can only rely on a pair of slender tentacles extending forward to find its way, and also rely on its tentacles to search for prey and find food at night.

5. Licking habits

Centipedes frequently lick their antennae and legs with the dense hairs on the protrusions of the first maxilla and the base of the maxilla, the brush-like bristles on the back of the second maxilla, and the saliva from their mouths. They also lick their own nests to keep them clean.

6. Temperature Centipedes are temperature-changing animals, and all their activities are often related to temperature. The most suitable temperature for centipedes to grow and develop is 25℃～32℃. When the temperature is 11℃～15℃, centipedes will reduce their foraging, stop mating and lay eggs. When the temperature drops below 10℃, centipedes will stop all activities, drill into the loose soil (or nest soil), curl up and hibernate. However, when the temperature rises to 33℃～35℃, all its activities will be suspended due to the loss of water in the body. If the temperature rises above 36℃, the body will lose too much water, causing the body to dry up and die.

7. Humidity: When the relative humidity of the air is 60% to 70% and the humidity of the soil is 10% to 20%, all the life activities of the centipede are most active. In other words, this is the most suitable humidity for the growth and development of the centipede.

The natural enemies of centipedes are mice, skinks, toads, ants, chickens and birds. Centipedes are slow in hatching and molting, and are easily taken advantage of by ants. They can be bitten to death and eaten in just a few hours, so it is necessary to prevent and control ants in advance.

Therefore, keeping dry is the most important thing. Other things like realgar can also repel centipedes.

Use cockroach smoke to kill cockroaches and centipedes at the same time.

Any kind of insecticide will kill all insects within one day after spraying.

Quicklime is often sprinkled on all sides of the house. Screens are added to the windows.

Take the saliva from the rooster's mouth and apply it to the wound to remove the centipede's poison.

After being bitten by a centipede, you can use fresh bitter melon leaves to crush and apply it externally to treat

The bite of a small centipede will only cause local redness, swelling and pain, while the bite of a large tropical centipede can cause lymphangitis and tissue necrosis, and sometimes purpura of the entire limb.

Some may experience systemic symptoms such as headache, fever, dizziness, nausea, vomiting, and even slurred speech, convulsions, and coma.

Emergency treatment

After being bitten by a centipede, wash the wound with soapy water immediately, apply cold and wet compress to the wound, or apply crushed houttuynia or dandelion to the wound. If you have systemic symptoms, go to the hospital immediately.

Note: Because centipede venom is acidic and soap is alkaline, it can neutralize the centipede venom.
