Finally, Millipede Control!
Millipedes are long, worm-like creatures with many legs. They are often found in moist, shady areas, such as gardens, mulch beds, and under rocks. While millipedes are not harmful to humans, they can be a nuisance.
Millipedes are sometimes the result of overwatered lawns.
These creepy invaders can clog pool filters and ruin romantic dinners.

MILLIPEDE CONTROL TREATMENTS:
You can expect to start to see relief from the Millipede Treatment the first night after our service. Millipede treatments can last up to 30 days, though often 1 treatment is all it takes to achieve semi-permanent relief from these pesky critters.
Proper lawn irrigation can help to reduce the millipede “pressure” on your home.
MILLIPEDE PEST CONTROL, PREVENT ENTRY:
Keeping millipedes out in the first place is the best way to mitigate your invaders.
- Seal cracks and gaps around windows and doors. Millipedes can squeeze through even the smallest openings, so it’s important to seal any cracks or gaps around windows and doors with caulk or weatherstripping.
- Seal cracks and gaps in the foundation. Millipedes can also enter your home through cracks and gaps in the foundation. To seal these openings, you can use caulk, expanding foam, or concrete.
- Install door sweeps. Door sweeps are a type of weatherstripping that helps to seal the bottom of doors. This can help to prevent millipedes from crawling under the doors.
- Screen vents. Millipedes can also enter your home through vents in the soffit. To prevent this, you can screen all the vents in the eaves of your home.
- Keep your home dry. Millipedes are attracted to moisture, so keeping your home dry is critical.
- Remove debris from around your home. Millipedes like to hide in moist, dark places. To discourage them from coming into your home, remove any debris from around your foundation, such as leaves, mulch, and woodpiles.
- Check your garage door seal. A worn out garage door seal is an open invitation to millipedes. Replace if necessary.
HOW MUCH DOES IT COST TO CONTROL MILLIPEDES?
Millipede Control starts at $199.00 for most homes.

FAQ’s: Millipede Extermination
What are millipedes?
Millipedes are long, segmented invertebrates with two pairs of legs on most body segments. They are not insects, but they are related to centipedes. Millipedes are typically found in moist, dark places, such as under rocks, logs, and leaf litter.
Are millipedes dangerous?
Millipedes are not dangerous to humans. They do not bite or sting, and their droppings are not harmful. However, they can be a nuisance, and their presence can be indicative of a moisture problem in your home.
Why do I have millipedes in my house?
Millipedes are attracted to moist, dark places. If there is a moisture issue in your home, such as a leaky pipe or a damp basement, it can attract millipedes. Food scraps may also cause millipede issues, so it is important to keep your kitchen clean and free of clutter. Our millipede exterminator service can help get rid of millipedes in your home fast!
Where do millipedes come from?
Millipedes can come from a variety of places, including the soil, the surrounding vegetation, and even from other infested homes. They can enter your home through cracks and crevices in the foundation, around windows and doors, and through plumbing pipes.
How do I get rid of millipedes?
There are a number of ways to go about millipede removal. You can try physical removal, using traps, or using chemical treatments.
Physical removal: You can remove millipedes by hand or with a vacuum cleaner. Be sure to dispose of them in a sealed container so they do not escape.
Traps: There are a number of traps available that can be used to catch millipedes. These traps work by attracting the millipedes with food or moisture.
Chemical treatments: Chemical treatments can be effective in killing millipedes. However, it is important to use these treatments carefully, as they can also be harmful to humans and pets.
