Dark brown in color, millipedes have a similar shape to a worm, round and long. Unlike worms, they have many legs. If they are threatened or dead, you will see them tightly coiled.
There is no danger associated with these nuisance pests; they do not bite or sting humans.
Why do I have a millipede problem?
Millipedes generally live outdoors in moist areas underneath items like rocks and logs; however, during the fall and spring months and periods of heavy rain, you might see them move in.
