  • these things are sooo cute! and they kill all of my other --hated with a passion-- pests!

  • They are creepy and disgusting and all should die but I am to scared of them and they are useful I'm killing other nasty animals. They have so many hairy legs eew

  • Ugh there's one in my house now i have no balls to catch it!

  • Disgusting creatures. I just found one in my bath and I squashed it!

  • theyre so beautiful. i love it when we find them in my house

  • Just a common centipede nothing freakish about it normal size little bit of poison nothing to worry about really

  • love these things :) co crazy looking :P

  • IV SEEN WAYYYYY BIGGER !!

  • @yellowraven8 thats what she said?

  • Kool insect I wonder why people kill these things there mah kool unless there venomis I would understand but that's a kool insect

  • NO THEY ARE NOT BEAUTIFUL, IF YOU SAW ONE EVERY 10 SECONDS IN YOUR BEDROOM YOU WOULD BE PISSED.THEY ARE DISGUSTING I KILL ONE EVERY 5 SECONDS THEY LEAVE GROSS YELLOW PIGMENTS BEHIND AND THEY FAST HAIRY LOOKING GROSS MOTHER FUXXXX

  • FINE! they're UGLY BASTARDS that give you the HEEBY JEEBIES, WHATEVER, more importantly LET THEM LIVE! BECAUSE THEY ARE BENEFICIAL PREDATORS, and EAT OTHER INSECTS THAT WOULD OTHERWISE PLAGUE YOUR HOME! Live and let live, leave room for nature to take its course. (the larger types of centipedes such as Scolependra on the other hand should be avoided as they can inflict a very painful bite and should be removed from the house if found, killing then would be understandable but still unfortunate)

  • that one is small i seen one and killed it was 6inch long and i live in indiana theas centipede are new to me never ever seen one untile this year 2010

  • these are some the ugliest, most awful looking creatures ever made!

    an abomination- i kill these things every time i see them!

  • what a really cool insect!!!

  • Yeah they're a pain, they're creepy, and they unbalance the food chain. But They only come out in spring and fall, where as spiders are out constantly. And they eat bedbugs, which are a major problem in the states right now. These fuckers won't mes with you, bedbugs are the nastiest bastards I've ever had the displeasure of encountering. So house centipede, I give you a slap on the wrist and no more.

  • DUDE that's the biggest one i've ever seen!!!!! Can't they live up to 7 years???? I bet this fucker is old. Light him on fire or something !!!!!!

  • u better not ever let that fucker loose or hes gonna murder u

  • T____T brrrr! Once I found one of those in the tub

  • I hate these more than anything. Ever since I saw one in my house, I have trouble sleeping.

  • You could make a centipede martini.

  • they make my fucking skin crawl, because i see them every once in a while

  • I grew up with these. They are demons from a hell dimension.  We hates them

  • amen!

  • Those things are freakin' quick that they don't even stand still if they crawl on you. If one was running across the room toward you and you were too lazy to avoid it your screwed. I'd prefer giant slow millipedes over these quick long legged intruders, as well as spider cause they alwats stand still just for their prey. Stay in one spot! O_O

  • Not giant, not beautiful and fucking gross. the end.

  • that is a silverfish nice the only one i find are grey

  • not a silverfish... check out some pics of silverfish on wikipedia. They look much nastier than a centipede lol. Silverfish don't have that many legs.

  • ur dumb, its not a silverfish, silver fish are smaller than 1/2 inch, and like you said are grey/silver...plus silverfish dont have a plie of legs

  • OH MY GOD, WHY!?

  • omg omg i hate centipedes, im sorry.

  • they are good bugs to have but they are so fucking ugly and creepy

  • Wonderful creatures. Why do you call it a white centipede though?

  • beautiful?? It's actually mighty ugly!!

  • i used to have alot of those in my house until i wiped them all out

  • I don't care if they eat other bugs my number one house rule is NO BUGS ALOUD. Their bite is preaty painfull you know. its acutally more painfull then a bees sting.

  • i heard they can't penetrate skin so i dunno about their bites, and its allowed btw lol ;)

  • thx for the correction, then you heard it worng... my friend felt on his skin and i saw it grow redish color. if they can't penetrate skin then that one is one unique centipede -.-

  • The real big ones which may be up to four years old DO bite. They can and readily will. The smaller ones fangs won't penetrate the skin.

    Go ahead, get a real big, striped one and put it on your inner thigh and see wtf happens...you will be sorry.

    They are not our friends, they came from the Middle East in the 1850's and therefore I equate them with the Terrorists.

    And they seem to be evolving, I've seen red striped ones...please kill them!!!

  • They only bite when you fuck around with them.

    As long as you don't attempt to crush it or anything, you'll be fine, no matter where you place it on your body. As far as they're concerned, you're just another surface to walk on, and they aren't in the habit of biting the ground.

    This species comes from the Mediterranean, not the MIddle East. Terrorist? So, the centipedes are looking to send a religious/political message and instill fear using violence?

    Riiiiight...

  • As far as I'm concerned they are the most hideous fucking creatures to crawl on this planet. They are not indigenous to the USA, therefore I don't want them in my FUCKING country, killing innocent, native species, and biting me randomly on the fucking thigh...I got a nasty staph infection and a huge hospital bill to prove it!

    I equate them to the 9/11 Fuck Faces metaphorically, you dumbass.

    They are terrorists, hence I systematically eliminate them from my home until they exist no more \m/

  • If you're not a Native American, YOU aren't indigenous to the USA. Also, most of the creatures that this species eats aren't native species either(i.e. species like Tegenaria domestica, or the Common House Spider, originated in Europe).

    I live in Pennsylvania, where these things first appeared in the US, and I probably have had thousands of these things crawling on me while I sleep over the course of my life, yet I've never been bitten.

    Your little metaphor fails on every level, dumbass.

  • Also, you'll NEVER completely eliminate these centipedes from your home. You know why? Because, for every one that you see, there are at least five that you don't. So, you kill one, you're just eliminating competition for the others. And killing the big ones actually HELPS the population, since they tend to eat smaller specimens. So keep up your irrational fear of these creatures. Even if you manage to kill all the ones in your house now, there wil ALWAYS be more where they came from.

  • @WelcomeToCarnate he ychill out bitch... most ppl dont like these things cuz they climb in out clothes and walls and beds!! i know some people who have been bitten... atleast termites dont show up right in fron of our fuckin face like these do

  • @llHyRaXll I suppose the irony of that comment went right over your head, didn't it?

    I accept the fact that these creatures live with me, and I walk through my home without fear, I put on my clothes without fear, and I sleep without fear.

    You and people like you get paranoid at just the sight of a harmless little bug.

    Yeah, there's a bitch here(a lot of them, actually), but it certainly isn't me.

  • @WelcomeToCarnate actually moron they are harmful.. haha your so dumb

  • @llHyRaXll Prove it, dumbass. There are NO medical records of a house centipede EVER directly causing any significant damage to a human, and even reports of bites are extremely rare. Scolopendra gigantea is the only centipede that has proven itself to be even remotely dangerous to humans, but it's a completely separate species, and its bite is NOT considered lethal.

    Once again with the irony. You can't even construct a proper sentence, yet you call me dumb. Keep talkin', pantywaist.

  • @WelcomeToCarnate MY PROOF IS I GOT BIT BY ONE WHNE I WAS SLEEPING and it hurt like fuck almost like a wasp sting.. ok so shtu the fuck up u havnt been bitten and dont know wut yer talkin about dumbass

  • @llHyRaXll YouTube is being a bitch right now and won't allow me to reply to your latest retarded little statement, so I'll be sending it to you in some other fashion.

  • @WelcomeToCarnate nice excuse

  • @llHyRaXll Why would I need an excuse to deal with a little parasite like you? Don't flatter yourself, Fairyboy, this new site layout is giving me error messages left and right.

  • @WelcomeToCarnate apparently this dickhead thinks wasp sting do not hurt!

  • @llHyRaXll When you've been bitten by things like Timber Rattlesnakes and Black Widows, minor things like wasp stings tend to become more annoying than painful. Being snapped with a rubberband is worse than a sting from a wasp, and even that's little more than a minor annoyance.

  • @WelcomeToCarnate actually all those things hurt right there.. abd for rubber bands it depends what kind of rubber band you use and how far you pull it back to snap it... i still think most ppl would agree with me that wasp sting hurt alot and is definately somthing ppl dont want to feel. unliek you tough guy

  • @llHyRaXll Rattlesnakes and Widows, yes, those do, as you say, "hurt like fuck", and cause a whole lot more than just swelling.

    For rubberbands, only those huge, high-tension ones really hurt(and leave red welts on your skin), especially when someone gets you in the back of the neck, so I'll give you that one.

    Most people would agree that wasp stings hurt, but not to the degree that you seem to think they do. And just because I have a high pain threshold doesn't mean I'm a masochist.

  • @WelcomeToCarnate most would agree wask stings hurt liek fuck just like i said.. and most would agree rubber bands hurt.. even the not so big ones

  • ALSO, about those "innocent, native species"....Well, it eats the likes of the Hobo Spider, Brown Recluse and Black Widow. Would you call them innocent? It also eats termits(which cause structural damage to homes), roaches, ants and mosquitos. Tell me, would you consider the animal credited with THE highest human body count(other than Humans themselves)to be "innocent"? Over a million people a year die of diseases spread directly through mosquitos. Anymore retarded crap you'd like to spout off?

  • thats anything but "beautiful", i would kill thta ugly fucker

  • squish the little fucker!!!

  • yea, that 1 is a lil bigger than the house centipede's i'm used to seeing

  • wow... that's a weird lookin' one. i've seen house centipedes all over the place, but never a pretty red colored one like that.

  • I keep hearing they are good to have around but i also heard if they bite you it feels like a bee sting.  Screw bee's and House centipedes, squash em all

  • i agree, fuk em!

  • IELLL! XD

  • I love and appreciate all life. However, when it comes to centipedes...OMG!

    THEY TOTALLY FREAK ME OUT!!!! SORRY(?)

  • these things make spiders look cute

  • hahaha they do

  • ha ya!

  • ._. hamina hamina hamina, i see those all the time here D:

  • i swear these things can teleport

    i saw one in the middle of my living room once so i got a phone book and dropped it on it

    when i lifted the book up, there was nothing there... O_o

  • LOLOLOLOL!!!

  • these things are taking over my house they are gray though and not that big but they taste the wrath of my bugspray every time.

  • Why? These are good creatures. They won't hurt you and aren't interested in your food. They eat cockroaches and silverfish. If you spray too much, you'll kill these forever but then roaches will move in (immune to your spray). They also prevent bedbugs, lice, all kinds of other things.

  • I know these guys can keep away other bugs.....

    But I'm too uncomfortable with them to enjoy their benefits.

    I prefer to keep my house empty of all insects and arachnids.

  • oh they hurt you, i found out the hard way

  • With most insects, I'm fine. With these? I practically have panic attacks when I see them, and I have no clue why.

  • I KNOW EH!>!!?

    it's coz they're ugly fuck heads!!!

    and when u wanna get em.

    they're to fast.

    so they run some where.

    and then you don't know when they'll come back.

    and where they'll be,

  • its the legs... but swipe anything at the mand their down because their legs are so fragile, they snap off too easily.

    it's really just a bluff, all you gotta do is call it.

  • o god i cant even look at it...

  • thing's fucking ugly, I hate those so much

  • they are so fricken scary... lol

  • i get those in my house in new york all the time, but there usually arent that big

  • lol those arnt just in Massashusetts they are everywhere.

  • beautiful??? r u serious u mean horrific

  • its fucking fast!

  • wth they arnt garden ones man the ones i have in me bckgarden are diffrent

  • Hen is B-E-A-UTIFUL to the max!!!! *_*

  • A white house centipede? - Dont you mean George Bush?

  • those things used to be in my house (also known as waterbugs) they come from drains in the basement or wet or moldy spots in ones home. nasty little buggers arent they? well, i just about hasd enough of them so i went out to walmart and bought a dehumidifier. i havn't seen a waterbug in 6 months....

  • Great video of a house centipede

  • yeah nasty mofos are right- where the hell do those things come from? are they in canada?holy shit i thought spiders were bad enough!

  • I live in canada ( qc ) and my mom kill one of this thin laste night

  • I just saw one in my room, so I flushed it in my bathroom XD

  • omg i have tons in my house in southern ontario. omg fucking disgusting and they scare me

  • These are some nasty MoFo's. I hate the fact that they aren't indigenous to the States. They're killing some good, decent insects like spiders. Although they won't go out of their way to bite us, if one nails you in defense it feels like a hot poker, and the big-daddys can pierce human flesh.

    They also run faster than Forest Gump when discovered, and I swear I heard one hissing at me like in the movie Aliens.

    These bastards are evolving too! I'm sure I'll see a neon one by years end!

  • dude, these ones wont bite you but the big ugly mother fuckin viet ones ect will and boy will it hurt like a fat bitch

  • These can bite and will. Just some of them can't even piece human flesh, feels about like a bee sting.

  • Damn its preety fast.

  • they're a bitch to capture

  • true, i live in england and i was trying to catch one , unfortunately i crushed it will the stones i was trying to dig up to get it

  • It's too damn intimidating.

  • I know house centipedes are beneficial, but I still hate them...they're just utterly horrifying in person. My dad just killed one in our bathroom tonight. UGH.

  • I've never seen one that color!

  • question, does house centipede inject venom into human and kills u?

  • its apparently no worse than a bee sting.

  • but kids with allergy to beestings wil go for a bumpy ride healthy adult its only like the guy below me said

  • HOMYFUCK.

    my house is infested with them. i own a foster home for kids and when ministry pest control came to do an annual check up, they told me i had an infestaion problem.

    so we got sprayed.

    those fuckers are fast man.

    uhg...

    -shivers-

    DXx

  • those sons of bitchs are fast

  • freaky imagine

  • Next time drop a cockroach into the jar, I want to see one of them eat it. And poor Centy, it's like a turtle on it's back while in that jar.

  • my friend has these in his apartment; theyre fucking nasty

  • I just killed one of these mofo's about 10 mins ago. I was on the toilet taking a pregnancy test and my husband was sitting on the side of the tub. Then he looked in the sink and was like "What...the fuck...is that?" LOL Plz the thing was huge I got up so fast I didn't even have time to wipe. Haha.

  • Lmao.

  • xD beautiful story.....did the happy face appear on the test lol

  • Yep ;]

  • congrats lol

  • Beautiful? I beg to differ.

  • i wetn to massachucats to see a friend, went down to his basment and saw 1 , i jumped up the stairs, they look so much nastier in person!

  • yes davisway, i was bitten by one of these nasty creatures. sitting on the living room floor in a damp old cottage where my wife and i lived. it felt like a lit cigarette against my leg and i sprung up like a startled cat. we caught it and had to just about drown it with bug spray (and the demon-bug lived for twenty minutes, swimming in poison). and of poison i can tell you i had a pretty ugly sore on my calf where the beast got me.  i shudder to think these can be pets.
  • OMG those vile things grow that big?

  • thank you god i have a she devil cat to kill these damn things they run so fast so i say juno get it and  my cat smacks it and all thier legs come off like legos.

  • I would eat it alive for a hundred bucks. Please let me know if interested in watching. 646-507-1898

  • That's so fuckin gross, I wouldn't do it for $1000

  • i live in a basement apartment in south carolina and i see them every day. they peace out when i cut the lights on in the morning but at night they fight off the roaches and spiders. i'm ok with them as long as they don't get on me. they have two modes, chill and GO!. when they are in go mode they are seriously fast. i don't think they bite though. i've never been bitten by one. anyone ever been bitten by one?

  • Itslooks like it can swim..This may sound strange but i think its cute :D

  • Its strange.

  • get the fuck outta here!!! :-p

  • beautiful???

    well, i guess beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

    p.s. how the hell did you catch it??? i saw one in my apartment and tried to "dispatch" it with my cutting board, but it ran like the wind. luckily my neighbor came over and took care of it. i guess men are good for some things after all... just kidding ;)

  • umm... giant??

  • When i was young i saw a huge 1 footer that looked exactly like that at my school. Pretty nasty actually

  • two words: "kill it"

  • umm... kill it now.

  • wait,do they really live in massachustts? cuz i live in illinois and i used to have a ton of those things running around in my house

  • They eat other bugs, they actually range around most of the U.S. and Canada.

    They are actually native to the Mediterranean, but have spread across most of N. America since 1860. (source, Wikipedia)

  • wait,do they really live in massachustts? cuz i live in illinois and i used to have a ton of those things running around in my house

  • These are good to keep in the house as they kill other insects, but once my dad killed one by smearing it against the wall and all of its detached legs were still moving, and the top portion was going crazy. That was pretty disturbing.

  • I wish there could be more non creepy bugs, life would be so much better. Things are just so fucking freaky looking, and they move so fast and bleh! i want em to stop popping out when i least expect them.

  • yea me too i will do anything to run from it LOL even they cant do anything to me

  • We found a ten inch centipede in our house once. It may have been a giant desert centipede, but I can't be sure. It was amazing.

  • This makes me feel a strange combination of pity and revulsion.

  • these bugs scare the fuck outta me last one i saw was incinerated

  • Why did you incinerate the centipede?

    It eats all the other bugs.

  • yeah, i dont kill them if they are in my basement, but if they are any ware else in the house, then i kill them, i kinda dont want to be sleeping with them, lol

  • same here

  • you should see the hawaiian ones

    massive motha fakas

  • not very giant but freaky

  • you trapped it under a wineglass LOL!

  • these things creep me out, we have yelloish paler ones here in los angeles. they see them scurrying eating roaches, its very very freaky, but i let them be cuz they too creepy to sqoosh, plus they move at tremendous speed, faster than the roaches XD

  • How can anyone in the world not love such a beautiful little animal, and how stupid do you have to be to be AFRAID of these? I don't respect anybody with a fear of creatures like these. It's complete idiocy.

  • i hate those things we have them in our house and i want then to just leave there so gross i always torment them i sprayed one with a can of axe once and it had a spazz attack we have even bigger ones then that tho ive seen one 6 times as big as that one hehe... not funny.....

  • soooooo fuckin groce!!!

  • mettilo in un cartone e dagli fuoco!!!!

  • i was peeing in the toilet in my basement once and there was one of those scurrying around my feet so i was trying to avoid it and not step on it with my bare feet AND maintain my perfect aim all at the same time

  • :) funny

  • you think that's beautiful????????

  • Whoa, I'm feeling some bad blood about house Centipedes. You do understand they have a weaker toxin than most spiders? I mean they kill spiders and are rather interesting...

  • i electrocute them with an electric fly swatter and then all their legs fall off

  • These are even worse than spiders, oh God. Can't cats or something eat them? Luckily I moved to a new house and there aren't any here.

  • burn it!

  • i hate those things

  • i want every one of those things on this planet dead.

  • In the middle of last night, I found one of those bastards on my BARE BACK -- I about shit myself, swatted it away and tried to keep myself this side of a bloody heart attack.

    Really, I know they aren't going to hurt me, but they're creepy with their scurrying long legs and brazen strolls across my kitchen floor. KILL EM ALL!!!!!!!

  • They bite. I see them in the spring and August running across my carpet in the late evening when they come out.

  • Wow. I honestly wouldn't know what I'd do if that happened or if one zoomed towards me while I was showering.

  • My basement has 2 dehumidifiers in it running almost nonstop and these bastards are STILL everywhere! I've even seen 1 in my room (3rd floor apartment). They can under your windows even if they're shut. They conveniently go into hiding when the bombardier beetles invade my house. Useless!

    We used to have a camel cricket problem but these bad-asses moved in and took over the neighborhood. I keep a bottle of bug spray around to shoot them with. Bad idea if you have any free-roaming pets though.

  • you consider THAT thing giant?

  • what do u mean by beautiful u freak>??? i cant go to sleep, it is 4 am and i am scared shitless because i just saw one, i live in nj, can anyone help?

  • they don't bite unless you try to pick them up so don't touch it, if you see one and want to kill it just hit it with a shoe. But they do help they eat other pests and small bugs that are in your home, they look freaky but they won't bother you unless you bother them

  • They bite if one is on you and you move. They are so fast.

    Ugly too.

  • One was on my foot over the summer, i was playing my ps3 and felt something on my foot, i looked down and i freaked out, it was first time seeing one since i moved into my new place. He got up really fast and he ran off behind my night stand. I did research and found out their not too bad, they are pretty freaky looking, especially ones like these.

  • SHOOT IT SHOOT IT!

  • KILL IT WITH FIRE

  • that is the fattest one i have ever seen.

  • Good Gawd these little guys are fast. They scare me sometimes because of this ;_; I love these little fellas. I hope I can catch one one day and post it :P

  • I'd burn my house down if too many centipedes where infesting the place!

    Either that or use a 12 gauge semi-auto.

  • I hate insects in my house. Once I have my own home I will take measures to bug proof it.

  • kill it man its like a bee without wings but a one kill bite

  • centipedes like these are a double edged sword: they bite but they also only eat insects. in other words if u hav em u have a dirty/cramped/messy room or house. unfortunately their throughout my second floor...shit.

  • you sick fuck! id have squashed that thing and you didnt! you dirty man

  • KILL IT OMFG WHY DID U LKET IT GO!?!?
