Why millipedes invade, and where.
Millipedes live in damp soil, mulch, and leaf litter, feeding on decaying plant matter. They invade homes in large numbers when their outdoor habitat gets too wet or too dry, often after heavy rain or during seasonal migrations. They enter through foundation cracks, door gaps, and basement openings, then gather in garages, basements, and ground-floor rooms where they leave dark stains if crushed.
Millipede invasions tend to come in waves, with dozens or hundreds appearing at once. Sweeping them up does nothing about the outdoor harborage areas and the moisture conditions pushing them toward the house, which is why a fresh wave shows up after the next rain.
For treatment that targets both the indoor activity and the outdoor source, call (888) 613-2481. A specialist will provide an affordable, no-obligation estimate, and if you choose to proceed, service can often be scheduled the same day.
Our millipede treatment process.
Every infestation is different. The specialist assigned to your home tailors the treatment to where the millipedes are entering and the outdoor conditions sending them in. Here is what the visit includes:
1. Inspection
The specialist identifies entry points around the foundation and doors, locates indoor activity, and finds the outdoor harborage areas and moisture conditions driving the invasion.
2. Targeted treatment
Professional-grade products are applied to the exterior perimeter, entry points, and indoor harborage areas, creating a barrier that addresses both the millipedes inside and the source outside.
3. Prevention
The specialist notes the mulch, moisture, and entry-point issues worth addressing so millipedes are far less able to push back inside after treatment.
To get started, phone (888) 613-2481. There is no charge to speak with a specialist and no obligation to schedule service.
