re centi and milli pedes in article castle ed ac uk gtclark festival ed ac uk g t clark writes msnyder nmt edu rebecca snyder writes does anyone know how posionous centipedes and millipedes are if someone was bitten how soon would medical treatment be needed and what would be liable to happen to the person just for clarification i have not been bitten by one of these but my house seems to be infested and i want to know just in case rebecca millipedes i understand are vegetarian and therefore almost certainly will not bite and are not poisonous centipedes are carnivorous and although i don t have any absolute knowledge on this i would tend to think that you re in no danger from anything but a concerted assault by several million of them g not sure of this but i think some millipedes cause a toxic reaction sting so i would not assume that they are not dangerous merely on the basis of vegetarianism after all wasps are vegetarian too dnc
