DIE PEDES DIE!
We called the exterminator, but they won't come til Monday or Tuesday. In the meantime, we're still infested. I just killed two a few minutes ago. I still haven't figured out whether they're centipedes or millipedes, but I'm not keen on checking out bug sites to find out more.
Two things, though. They seem to have no vertical abilities... if you put something in front of them they'll crawl around it rather than over it, and the only place I've seen them is the floor. They're also really really hard to kill. I jumped on one with my full weight on the carpet and it got up and walked away. Kill them on a hard surface and it makes a really loud sickening CRUNCH. To kill them on carpet you have to grind with your foot... which I cannot bear to do.
I will be so happy when this is over.
