The first time i encountered a house centipede was probably last year around Fall. To be honest i didn’t even bother looking up what it was, i just wanted it out. I remember it was on the ground right beside my dresser. It was huge, and it reminded me of a thinner version of a chubby caterpillar. So, basically i screamed for help. Boyfriend to the rescue!

A month later, another one was right outside my bedroom door. I opened the door and there it ran. It was fast, it was smooth, i was in shock. So once again, i screamed for help. Cat to the rescue!
Last night, While i was checking my e-mail last night, a medium sized one ran across my desk and literally stood still right beside the monitor stand. I was terrified and extremely worried that it could mean some kind of infestation, requiring pest control. But whatever, calling pest control was the last thing on my mind. I quickly grabbed my cell phone, turned on the flash light function and stared at the twitching antennae. Bad move, it ran behind the wires on the monitor which happen to be black, now it was almost camouflaged. At this point i turned on every light i have in my room, but nope couldn’t reach over to squish that little thing. Not to mention, i really don’t want to be touching that thing with my hands so i had to be very careful. After 5mins of the staring match between me and the bug, it made its move and finally went on the wall. *Squish!* Good bye little fellow. May you rest in peace!
This doesn’t look like something you want in your bedroom right? This link should help give you a general idea what it is. Ewwwww.
