Weird bug

San Diego, CA

Found this bug in my laundry room. It was almost an inch long (it got severed in half during the process of killing it) and ran fast. It looked hairy before I sprayed it. Anyone recognize it? I also just found a white one that looked the same.

I am pretty sure that your strange bug is the House Centipede - Scutigera coleoptrata

This is not the best place to ask for identifications. We have a Insect and Spider Identification Discussion Forum: http://davesgarden.com/community/forums/f/bugid/all/
where you are much more likely to get a response. This forum is intended for problems relating to adding information to BugFiles,
