Stop recurring pest sightings and moisture-driven invasions with Lee Pest Control’s expert centipede and millipede control services. We help homeowners across Anoka, Coon Rapids, and the Twin Cities eliminate crawling pests through moisture correction, exclusion sealing, and targeted treatments that restore lasting comfort indoors and outdoors.
Comprehensive Centipede and Millipede Removal
Centipedes and millipedes thrive in damp, dark environments such as basements, crawl spaces, and bathrooms. While centipedes are predatory and fast-moving, millipedes feed on decaying organic matter, often appearing after rain or during seasonal humidity shifts. Our pest management experts inspect your property to identify nesting areas, humidity sources, and entry points.
We then apply residual insecticides, dehumidification strategies, and exclusion repairs to eliminate infestations at the source. All treatments are based on Integrated Pest Management (IPM), prioritizing prevention, environmental correction, and low-toxicity methods for safe, long-lasting results.
How We Treat Centipedes and Millipedes
Centipedes often make colonies unexpectedly, and they should be identified before that.
Environment Assessment
We perform a detailed inspection of basements, crawl spaces, and foundation walls to identify moisture buildup and entry zones that attract centipedes and millipedes. Identifying at the start is helpful for treatment.
Targeted Treatment
Our technicians apply crack-and-crevice insecticides, perimeter sprays, and dust formulations in infested areas such as baseboards, utility lines, and storage areas. All treatments are EPA-approved and odor-free.
Structural Repair
We seal foundation gaps, weatherstrip doors, and apply mesh barriers to vents and drain openings. These exclusion methods block entry points and prevent reinfestation of these millipedes and centipedes.
Long-Term Prevention
Follow-up inspections and seasonal reapplications maintain protection year-round. We also provide recommendations for dehumidifiers, drainage correction, and vegetation management around foundations.
Pests We Handle Alongside Centipedes and Millipedes
Moisture-driven pests often appear together. Our integrated control programs address related infestations, including:
