I got bitten by this hell spawn. I was sleeping and I guess I was stretching my leg and laid my leg on top of this thing.
I have never felt so much pain in my life. It felt like my skin was melting and burning at the same time. For the next few weeks, the bite mark would randomly start to puss and random shots of pain.
I’d rather have roaches. At least with roaches, they don’t bite.
Standard house centipedes (I’m pretty sure that’s what’s in this comic) aren’t supposed to have a very painful bite. You may have been bitten by a different kind of centipede, or maybe had an allergic reaction, for your pain to be so severe.

yea the other type of centipedes are nearly the worst kind of bite you can get. the giant ones that catch bats and eat mice.
Where are they native so I can potentially live the remainder of my life in irrational fear?
They’re native to Vietnam and live in most of the tropics, including Hawaii.
I live in Taiwan.
This might have something to do with it. Different type of centipede.
Those bites are rare and barely noticeable
I live on a tropical island.
Home centipedes are the same everywhere. What you encountered was something else

It’s not the same. They are significantly bigger here and much more venomous.
The ones found in America are Scutigera coleoptrata.
Yes, as I said it’s a didferent specie
