CENTIPEDE CONTROL IN ST. LOUIS

Centipede control is cutting off the moisture and the bugs centipedes eat, then treating where they hide. In St. Louis, house centipedes live in basements, bathrooms and crawl spaces, hunting other insects. Zero Pest covers centipedes and millipedes on the quarterly Home Shield plan.

KNOW YOUR ENEMY

Many-legged guests.

Centipedes hunt. Millipedes wander in. Both love damp spots.

BASEMENTS

House centipedes

Long legs, very fast. They hunt spiders, silverfish and other bugs indoors.

MULCH

Soil centipedes

Thin and yellow-brown. They live outside in soil and leaf litter.

FALL & RAIN

Millipedes

Slow and round. They wander in by the hundreds after heavy rain.

THE CAUSE

Their food

More centipedes usually means more bugs for them to eat.

WARNING SIGNS

Signs you have a centipede problem.

  • House centipedes in basements and bathrooms
  • Millipedes curled up on garage and basement floors
  • Lots of other small bugs around
  • Damp basements or crawl spaces

If you see house centipedes, you probably have other bugs too. We treat both.

WHY SPRAY FAILS

Why centipedes keep coming back.

Store-bought spray

  • Kills the one you see, not the food source
  • Doesn't fix damp basements
  • Misses crawl spaces and wall gaps
  • Millipedes keep moving in after rain

Zero Pest

  • Cuts down the bugs they eat
  • Treatment in basements and crawl spaces
  • Barrier outside for millipedes
  • Retreated every 90 days, free re-service
HOW WE TREAT IT

Our centipede treatment, step by step.

  1. Inspect

    We look at moisture, entry points and what they are feeding on.

  2. Treat inside

    Basements, bathrooms, crawl spaces and floor drains.

  3. Barrier outside

    Foundation and mulch beds, where millipedes and soil centipedes live.

  4. Cut the food supply

    Fewer bugs inside means fewer centipedes hunting them.

  5. Come back

    Every 90 days, plus free re-service between visits.

FAQ

Centipede Control questions.

Are house centipedes dangerous?
Not really. They can bite, but rarely, and it is usually no worse than a bee sting. Mostly they are just alarming.
Why do I see centipedes in my basement?
They need moisture and food. Damp basements with other bugs are perfect for them.
Do you treat millipedes too?
Yes. Millipedes are covered by Home Shield, and the outside barrier stops most of them.
How much is centipede control in St. Louis?
Centipedes are covered by Home Shield: most homes pay $175 for the first visit (normally $275, with $100 off for new customers), then from $45 a month for quarterly service.
Is the treatment safe for kids and pets?
Yes. Products are safe once dry, usually about 30 minutes.
