Whilst a bite is not lethal it is very painful and can leave you feeling very unwell if you don’t see a doctor right away. You need to be especially cautious if you’re allergic to insect bites or stings of any kind as bites have been reported to trigger dangerous allergic reactions.
i ****ing hate those. if you try killing them with a slipper they run to the other room before you even swing
you have to be gentle and pretend you like it, start feeding it little snacks and it will start trusting you, then once it comes near you for affection SQUISH it with your hand
Some species of centipede can be hazardous to humans because of their bite. Although a bite to an adult human is usually very painful and may cause severe swelling, chills, fever, and weakness, it is unlikely to be fatal. Bites can be dangerous to small children and those with allergies to bee stings. The bite of larger centipedes can induce anaphylactic shock in such people. Smaller centipedes usually do not puncture human skin.[14]
Even nonvenomous centipedes are considered frightening by humans due to their dozens of legs moving at the same time and their tendency to dart swiftly out of the darkness towards one's feet.
my house has crazy house centipedes. I HATE going into my basement during the summer. They come upstairs a lot too and I make my brother kill them. Too big for me to kill
