minus-squaregreyhaven7@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up75·1 year agoIt’s a common house centipede. Generally good critters. They do bite though.
minus-squarenova_ad_vitum@lemmy.calinkfedilinkarrow-up36arrow-down1·1 year agoI know they’re generally harmless (they eat bugs and won’t bite you if you leave it alone) but they make my skin crawl and I can’t help but kill them with extreme prejudice when I find one.
minus-squareFeminalPanda@lemmings.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up15·1 year agoThe big thing for me is it’s a sign there are bugs for them to eat in your walls or house.
minus-squareOceanSoap@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkarrow-up8arrow-down1·1 year agoSame. Just seeing one makes me gag. My physical response to them is wild, and I WILL kill it.
minus-squareatyaz@reddthat.comlinkfedilinkarrow-up6·1 year agoNot only do they bite, they are venomous. So if one does manage to bite you, it will hurt like a bitch. On the other hand, one will most likely not bite you.
