Centipede hands submitted this post.

I get a lot of these in my house. They come out at night. I’ve learned to hold my pee for a long time. I’m a 49yo man.

Whoever made that statement can have my house centipedes.

The video has good points, though it also has lots of photos and clips of centipedes that aren’t house centipedes, some of which are venomous and can definitely hurt humans.

Even if they’re harmless, I’d find it unnerving to have them around because I’d worry about whether one could have wandered under my sheets or into a shoe. If I see one in the basement I’d leave it alone, but if I saw one in my bedroom or bathroom, that’s a dead bug brah.

All very good of reasons. But they are so creepy!

I have at least one in my house. We coexist peacefully.

I’m not fond of insects that go near you or are unpredictable (stinkbugs!). Centipedes are not like that. They’re discreet, always keep their distance, and when you notice them they don’t startle you.
They’re very polite.

And I don’t find them creepy looking like some big spiders. They make me think of fluffy dried plants.

I realize I haven’t seen mine in a while and I’m a bit worried

One of the (thankfully) only times I saw one of these fuckers it was on my ceiling above my desk. I left early for school that day.
