    Simple Method:

    Many pharmacies buy realgar or quicklime, you can sprinkle some quicklime in the dark corner of the room and under the bed, sprinkle it often, and the centipede will disappear.

    The habits of centipedes.

    1. Like to live in groups: centipedes have the habit of living together in large and small groups, centipedes in the same group can get along in harmony, and rarely fight and kill each other, if the habitat is too small, when there are too many centipedes, the old centipedes will automatically go away and find another habitat.

    2. The centipede is timid and frightened, and if it is slightly frightened, it will stop feeding, flee for its life, or curl up and do not move, and the female centipede that is laying eggs will immediately stop laying eggs, and the centipede that hatches the eggs will eat the eggs after being frightened.

    3. Like dark and damp. Most of the wild centipedes inhabit hillsides, fields, roadsides, overgrown places, or inhabit between firepiles and roof tiles, and often inhabit in dark corners such as kitchen corners, and centipede footprints are also common under the bricks and tiles around pig houses and chicken coops.

    4. Inhabit the nest during the day and come out at night. 8 to 12 o'clock in the evening is the peak of centipede activity, generally until 4 o'clock in the morning to return to the nest to rest, after dawn is difficult to see centipedes.

    During the day, the centipede's eyesight is very poor, and it is difficult to see things from a little distance, so it is difficult to forage for food and defend against predators, and it only relies on a pair of slender tentacles that stretch out in front of it to find its way, and at night it also relies on its antennae to search for prey and forage.

    The natural predators of centipedes are rats, skinks, toads, ants, chickens and birds. Centipedes are slow to hatch and molt, and are easy to be taken advantage of by ant colonies, and can be bitten to death and eaten in just a few hours, so it is necessary to control ants in advance.

    Therefore, it is most important to keep it dry, and others like realgar can also repel centipedes.

    If you want to make it yourself, you can do it like this:

    1. Buy pyrethroids (which may be sold in pharmacies), sprinkle some in places where centipedes often appear, and sprinkle some at the entrance of sewers, which can be killed;

    2. Buy deworming tablets and smoke them tightly; realgar plus wine sprinkled into the drain;

    3.Keep the environment as dry as possible.

    4. Raise a rooster to catch it.

    5. Remove creepers and other plants outside the window.

    6. Sprinkle lime powder on doorways and windows and other places where centipedes may crawl, because centipedes like humid environments.

    7. Smoke the house with wormwood.

    8. There are two drugs that are effective against centipedes, the diluted solution of realgar water or dichlorvos, after spraying on the ground and corners of the house, the door is closed for at least half a day, and the effect is said to be good.

    Of course, it's best to hire a professional.
