Si vous désirez connaître les secrets et les façons de s’en débarrasser, voici ce qu’il faut faire :

Kill them at first sight

This is the essential and the approach to follow to exterminate centipedes, because their tiny legs allow them to move quickly to hide. Act quickly. Kill them by stomping on them or using insect repellent.

Set sticky traps to catch them

You should place the sticky traps in the cracks and corners where you often see centipedes. Be aware that large centipedes don't get stuck on the sticky surface, but they leave their footprints there. Place glue more effectively on the surface to catch centipedes of all sizes.

Use of an insecticide

It is important to remember that there are temporary solutions to exterminate centipedes and that you must use products that kill the insects without harming the surrounding areas and the environment. Use an insecticide to kill centipedes without poisoning the soil. As an alternative, you can use boric acid in the form of an aerosol or smoke to control centipedes.

Place barriers in certain corners of your house

Whether it's a natural or chemical insecticide or any other solution, dig a ditch as a fence in areas of your home and outdoors to prevent centipedes from entering your home. If, however, they manage to enter your home, they will be found dead thanks to pesticides containing cyhalothrin, a substance used mainly to exterminate ants.

In addition, we advise you to keep corners and bathrooms dry, because centipedes prefer to stay in damp places. The lack of water makes them dry and they eventually die.

 Seek the assistance of a professional exterminator

After trying everything to exterminate centipedes, if you feel more scared, it is necessary to hire the services of a professional exterminator who will help you eradicate these harmful and scary multi-legged insects effectively. Extermination professionals know very well how harmful insects crawl around the house and they are able to locate the affected areas and apply the effective way to eliminate centipedes from your home, which will give you peace of mind and security.
