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!
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 means you have house centipedes which is only slightly less bad.
Very very very very wrong
