Just so people who see them aren’t worried, they don’t just eat bed bugs. They will eat basically any insect that is smaller than they are up to and including spiders. I even saw one eating a yellowjacket once. So having house centipedes in your home doesn’t mean that you have bedbugs.
yeah it’s just zoomed in, discolored, and wet/squished. Poor thing. Theyre unnerving at first but once you get used to them you can think of them as eyelashes gliding around the floor.
That’s a house centipede. They will leave you alone and eat lots of pests.
Thanks for taking the useful approach, rather than parroting the usual drivel
Edit It turns out they feed on bed bugs - surely that should sway a few people.
…And they can detach their legs? I want one!

Yeah it means you have house centipedes which is only slightly less bad.
Spiders are creepy but they’re not bad either. Get rid of flies and mosquitos
Don’t worry, you already have more than one, probably hiding in the walls.
Unless you live in a high rise building…

that visualization doesn’t help, at all
Theyre just winking at you across the floor ;)
