These millepeds have come out in mass, climbing all over the outside of my home. They gather in groups in corners and along edges. They hide under potted plants. Do not like daylight and tend to hide during the day, coming out at night and early morning. If they get in the house they tend to die along the edge of the baseboards. Due to the quantity I had to call the pest guy to spray. He said he had never seen so many. We have never had so many.
