We have a large, elderly mixed breed female dog who loves to kill centipedes. She comes up behind them and snaps them in half before they can swing around and bite her. She somehow has managed to only get bitten once, and it hardly seemed to bother her. It certainly didn't stop her as she still chases them with great relish.
Cheers,
Jerry

Jerry, many years back I had a 35 pound female "Pitbull" in Honolulu who just loved to attack & eat cockroaches at night! At the time where I lived was a school across the street. At night I'd take my dog for a walk, and right at the end I'd set her loose in the corridors of the school. At night cockroahes by the thousands would be all over. All you could hear was my dog's nails scretching in the corridors of the school as she'd slide out of control trying to get these nasty bugs. It was always good for an evening laugh.
As for the Centipedes Stan. After my wife had a Centipede on the inside of her pant leg on our second night in our new house I decided to take action. Orthos Home Defense"MAX" works the best in my opinion. Just spray it weekly around a perimeter of your home. Anything that crosses it will die....or so they(Ortho & my friend swears by it too) say? Plus the stuff is oderless too, big difference from the old "Blackflag" & "Raid" days, when the stuff alone almost kiiled you with it's smell
