🚫 Millipede Prevention: Keep Them Out Permanently

For long-term success, preventing entry is the most effective way to mitigate your millipede invaders. These tips, part of our IPM strategy, help seal your home against these persistent pests.

Millipede Prevention Focus	Action Steps
Exclusion (Sealing)	Seal ALL Cracks & Gaps: Millipedes can squeeze through tiny openings. We recommend sealing cracks around your foundation, windows, and door frames using high-quality caulk or expanding foam.
Doors & Windows	Check Door Sweeps: Install or replace door sweeps and check your garage door seal—a worn seal is an open invitation. Screen all soffit and crawl space vents.
Moisture Management	Keep Your Home Dry: Millipedes are powerfully attracted to moisture. Correcting drainage issues and reducing humidity is critical. Overwatered lawns (yours or a neighbor’s) or living near water, like a retention pond, often increases the risk of a severe millipede invasion.
Debris Removal	Clear the Perimeter: Millipedes thrive in dark, moist hiding spots. Immediately remove debris from your home’s foundation, including excessive mulch, leaves, old woodpiles, and stone.
