This is... the dreaded GIANT CENTIPEDE. They are really disgusting. This is one that my dad chopped up outside, but a couple days ago we found some in our house . Well actually, some isn't the word, because there were about forty (they hatched out of eggs). When they are just hatched, they are about an inch long, and we saw two of them crawling out of our bathroom and we freaked out. Soon more came. My dad got the bug spray out and started spraying around the toilet, which is where they were coming from. They just kept coming and coming. We all were grossing out, especially poor Mother Dearest, who can't stand them. I mean, none of us like centipedes, but she likes them least of all. They are really bad because they bite, and the baby ones bites' are like bee stings, and then they just get worse when they get bigger. Full grown they are about 5-6 scaly, creepy, crawly inches long.So after most of them were gone, we decided to tape up the crack in the wall where they were coming from, just in case, so they couldn't come out when we were asleep. the next morning we found a full grown one on the floor and Dad flushed it. Well that's a lovely story for you. what will happen next? You never know.

Ugh! That is so gross! I hate centipedes too. Spiders are fine, crawly things... not fine! I hope you don't have many more encounters!
