House Centipedes on the 27th Floor?!
Hey everyone, I moved into the 27th floor of a 5-year old condo during the winter in Toronto, Canada. Now that it’s near summer, I’ve lately been seeing 1 baby house centipede every couple of days in my ensuite bathroom.
How is this possible when I’m so high up and when my condo is also relatively new?!
I’m so frustrated. I have a genuine phobia of these house centipedes to the point that I moved out of my old house to a condo so that I don’t have to see these bugs ever again.
I understand that they may be beneficial, but the real reason why I have this phobia is because, unlike most people who just see one or two a month, my old house had an infestation, where I would catch up to 12 adults in a single night.
How can I get rid of these?! Please help me :’(
