They are prey-dependent, though, so keeping your home free of insects and spiders will help. I doubt you could make any *room* off-limits to them.

I don't mind them much if they're in the living room or bathroom. I just don't want them in my bedroom. I read that a dehumidifier would work since it'll take away the moisture and make it less favorable for them.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2886700853255525969.post-88418665297459743002009-10-07T00:00:23.060-05:002009-10-07T00:00:23.060-05:00My husband just captured a house centipede (I shiv...My husband just captured a house centipede (I shiver evertime I look at it), but we can't help be amazed by it as well.

My post on these guys is probably one of my top-ten subjects that I continue to get hits on (it was also one of the earliest I did, back in Feb 08). They inspired a discussion I had with a few friends, also mentioned in that post, on what bug you have a personal phobia of (mine's earwigs).
