Yes, I have read up on them.... total friendly pest... not harmful to humans but prey on other nasty insects (earwigs, bed bugs, cockroaches, etc.).
But my honey is having none of it... centipede's darting up the wall is not acceptable... also fortunately we only spot one about once a month... and apparently the only thing that kills them are the same non toxic things that kill ants, boric acid and stuff like that.
