Need help identifying centipedes?

What causes centipede infestations?

Centipede infestations are driven by the availability of insects, their primary food source. Centipedes seek out damp, dark areas such as basements, bathrooms, and crawl spaces. High humidity and moisture create favorable conditions for centipedes. Structural gaps, cracks, and openings provide entry points for centipedes to enter homes. Poor sanitation and cluttered spaces can exacerbate centipede infestations by providing abundant food and hiding places.

How do I get rid of a centipede infestation?

To get rid of a centipede infestation, reduce moisture in and around your home by fixing leaks and using dehumidifiers. Remove clutter and debris where centipedes can hide, such as piles of leaves, mulch, or firewood. Seal cracks and gaps in walls, windows, and doors to prevent entry. Use insecticides or traps in high-activity areas to target centipedes. Regularly clean and vacuum infested areas, paying special attention to basements, bathrooms, and crawl spaces. Keep your home well-ventilated to reduce humidity levels. Remove any sources of standing water and ensure proper drainage around your property. Maintain a clean and dry environment to make your home less attractive to centipedes. If the infestation is severe or persistent, contact Aptive for a tailored pest management plan that includes comprehensive inspection, treatment, and preventive measures to keep centipedes at bay. Regular maintenance and proactive measures can help prevent future centipede infestations.
