Pest Information

  • Millipedes: A Common Sight in Inland Empire Gardens: Millipedes are arthropods known for their elongated bodies and numerous pairs of legs. While they are beneficial decomposers in the natural environment, their presence in large numbers can be a nuisance.
  • Identification: Millipedes are typically dark brown or black and have cylindrical bodies with two pairs of legs per body segment. They range in size from a few millimeters to several inches long.
  • Habits: Millipedes are nocturnal and prefer damp environments. They feed on decaying organic matter, such as leaves and wood, and are often found under rocks, logs, and mulch.
  • Threats: Millipedes are not venomous and do not bite or sting. However, they can become a nuisance when they invade homes in large numbers, especially during periods of wet weather.
