It looks like a centipede to me. Yuck!!! We have all kinds of bugs around here with the warm climate, and I think I've seen these before. They are probably coming in due to the cooler temps. Spraying around outside may be the solution.

We had a big caterpillar just inside our front door a couple of nights ago, but I'm sure it slithered inside from the plants by our porch. I picked it up with a paper towel and flushed it. My hubby said it would probably come back up and bite me .

Good luck getting rid of your little pests!!!

It looks like a centipede to me too. Malathion is another good chemical to spray around your house because it's safe for animals. Even to get a bug spray in a can would be alright to use, just make sure it's safe for use around animals. I'd just spray it around the baseboards in the house. It's no fun having creepy crawlies around your house. Good luck!!
