Millipedes are long, slim creatures. They normally live outdoors in damp soil under flowerbeds and gardens eating live and dead leaves, soft roots, decaying wood particles, small insects, earthworms and snails. Homeowners find millipedes that have entered through a garage door and are taking up residence in their basements since many are dark and undisturbed; the millipedes can be very active. Millipedes do not usually live very long in the dry environment inside a home. They are nocturnal, so they stay hidden during the daytime when the sun is out. To make your flowerbeds less attractive to millipedes, you can remove excess mulch and keep remaining mulch away from the foundation. Be sure there are no piles of dead leaves or grass clippings near the foundation. Although they do not bite, some millipedes defend themselves by producing an unpleasant-smelling liquid from glands on their sides. It is thought that the liquid is toxic to insects, spiders and small animals and can cause small blisters on the skin of people who handle them.
