I found one like that about 5 to 6 inches long a few years ago on our front entry. First time I'd ever seen one like that around here. Haven't seen one like that since. Otherwise they are only an inch to inch & a half long. The scorpions here are only about three quarters of an inch. Our spiders are usually pretty small, except for some of the Black Widows. I don't bother wolf spiders unless they are in the house, but I really hate Black Widows & kill them every chance I get. I use an insect trap inside the house that I place under a couple of 4 watt night lights in a couple of places in the house. They are black plastic trays from H.D. with a layer of sticky stuff in the bottom of the tray. Flying insects that happen to get in are attracted to the lights at night and fall into the traps. If there are spiders around, they sometimes get stuck trying to get the other bugs in the trap. I don't think the traps would hold a centipede that size tho.
