“What Are Millipedes and How to Get Rid of Them”

Adiplopod, commonly known as a millipede, is an arthropod with a long, segmented body and many pairs of legs, typically found in damp, dark environments like under logs, rocks, and leaf litter, as well as in soil. Inside homes, they may appear in basements, crawl spaces, or bathrooms where moisture is high. They feed on decaying plant material and contribute to soil health.

To manage them: Reduce Moisture: Keep areas dry and fix leaks. Clean Up: Remove decaying organic matter and clutter. Seal Entry Points: Close gaps and cracks where they might enter. Use Traps or Pesticides: Employ traps or insecticides as necessary. These steps can help prevent and control millipede infestations.
