no way those are real. it looks like a transmutation of a cricket and a millipede and it goes way to fast. what the hell happened to my tolerance I used to love bugs :shrek-pixel-despair
Millipedes: Chill dudes, eat leaves, feels funky when they slowly walk across your hand.
Centipedes: I have a hundred legs and they are all for kicking your ass.
There's usually dozens of then hanging out in wood piles. Imo they would be fine if they didn't move so fucking fast.
Going into the basement at my place is like being in a fucking horror movie because of those bastards. When I first moved in I went down barefoot and stepped on one then while I was investigating another one scampered across my foot and I screamed like a child.
Don't they eat other insects as well? I remember reading that it's good not to remove them from your home.
Yeah and they're hunters so they'll actively hunt and kill things bigger than them, unlike a lot of predatory insects.
As long as you're not allergic to them, the most they can do to you aside from scaring you to death is give you a little sting that gives you a little red bump that doesn't itch
Centipedes are my new best friends, I hate silverfish
yakub created repulsive cave creatures of many different species. Scutigera coleoptrata is simply the centipede variant.
They're unsettling looking for sure, but they eat pest insects so they're not bad to have around. Much like house spiders!
Thankfully, they're harmless to humans, although they're basically the apex predators of the insides of your walls. They are the synthesis of "bro" and "eldritch nightmare fuel."
I love them so much, it’s like a small shoggoth is living with you but it just wants you to be happy
lmao these things are creepy as hell, but pretty much harmless afaik.
They are horrible I fucking hate them and I also don't mind most bugs or spiders. Something about the way they look is revolting
Honestly they don't bother me too much, but the time i saw a spider cricket like 6 inches away from my face when i rolled over in bed one day freaked me the fuck out
I didn't even know what the hell it was, it looked like an unholy mix between a wolf spider and a cricket with like honeybee type striping on the body
I straight up yelped. THEY JUMP RIGHT AT YOUR GODDAMN FACE IF YOU COME AT THEM, ASK ME HOW I FOUND THAT OUT
Yeah I attack those crickets with a squirt gun of soapy water now. They scare the crap out of me every time.
They take like 3 years to get real big. My wife says they look like fake eyelashes
Once had a house centipede run up my leg while I was tripping. On the one hand, it was terrifying beyond what mere language can describe, on the other, it made me panic-learn everything I could about centipedes. Turns out they're pretty beneficial critters to have around, as pests go.
