You will usually find millipedes crawling through wet or damp areas outside. They like habitats near rotten wood, cut grass, mulch, and litter. Millipedes need to keep their bodies moist, so they hide on sunny days and prefer to explore at night. Look closely at your outdoor gardens, flower beds, and lawns – millipedes love to dig there for delicacies like rotten wood and organic matter. However, if their preferred habitats become dry or sparse, these sticky insects begin to venture indoors.
They may first congregate around your porch or patio to search for dark, damp spots in the woods and loot for food. Beware of exposed crawl spaces – millipedes can pass through vents and crevices to an area near wet or humid wood.
Typically, homeowners find millipedes indoors during the fall and winter due to the drier and cooler temperatures. These hardy insects enter garage doors or windows, waiting for your exterior homes to regain wet homeostasis.
Once they find an entrance to your home, millipedes chew on rotten wood, plant matter, and trash. If you start to see droppings or molten skin on the ground, you may have a millipede infestation on your hands. If you try to eliminate one of these thin parasites, it can give off an unpleasant odor as a defense mechanism, and this foul-smelling liquid can irritate the skin and burn the eyes.
