Seguin Centipede & Millipede Infestation — Reading the Underlying Cause

Centipedes and millipedes are not random visitors in Seguin homes — they are indicators. High moisture in crawlspaces or basements, organic debris close to the structure, and insect populations in wall voids or lower floors all attract these arthropods reliably. Treating the population without addressing these conditions produces only temporary results.

Millipedes, which feed on decaying organic matter, often invade in large numbers after heavy rainfall — migrating from outdoor mulch and leaf litter into foundations and through gaps in the building envelope. Centipedes follow the insects they feed on.

How to Tell Centipedes and Millipedes Apart

Centipede: fast-moving, flat-bodied, one leg pair per segment, predatory. House centipedes are drawn indoors by insect prey and can deliver a mild bite if handled directly. Millipede: slow-moving, cylindrical, two leg pairs per segment, feeds on decomposing organic material. Millipedes coil defensively when disturbed and secrete compounds that cause skin and eye irritation in sensitive individuals — handle neither species without protection.

Treatment Approach in Seguin

Effective control requires both chemical treatment and environmental modification. Perimeter spray reduces the population entering the structure, while moisture and harborage reduction addresses the conditions sustaining the population.

Treatment Options for Seguin Properties

Effective centipede and millipede control addresses both the active population and the underlying environmental conditions sustaining it.

Perimeter & Foundation Treatment

Residual insecticide applied around the perimeter of the structure at the foundation, over mulch beds, and at all identified entry points.

Basement & Crawlspace Treatment

Interior treatment focuses on the harborage and transition zones: basement floor perimeters, crawlspace wall junctions, utility areas, and the lower-level spaces where both species concentrate after entering through foundation gaps.

Moisture Assessment

Our Seguin technician assesses moisture conditions throughout the lower structure — basement walls, crawlspace surfaces, and foundation drainage — identifying the specific sources of excess humidity that centipedes and millipedes require to survive indoors.

Entry Point Sealing

Entry point sealing addresses the structural vulnerabilities that allow centipedes and millipedes to move freely between outdoor harborage and interior living space. Foundation gaps, pipe penetrations, and door threshold gaps are the most frequently identified access routes in Seguin properties.

Outdoor Harborage Reduction

Advice on removal of mulch, leaf litter, wood piles, and organic debris adjacent to the foundation.

Prey Insect Control (Centipedes)

House centipedes are predators — their presence in quantity means a prey insect population is supporting them. Where this is identified in your Seguin property, treating only the centipedes leaves the food source intact. Our integrated approach targets both, removing the centipedes and the reason they were there.
