Natural Insecticide?
-
Douglas Hunt on Jun 27, 2013Millipedes require a moist environment and organic matter, so the most natural thing to do is to make sure there's no mulch touching your house or wood piles close to the house. If you need to resort to an insecticide, the University of Nebraska-Lincoln recommends an insecticide containing Carbamate, applied outside the home: http://lancaster.unl.edu/pest/resources/centipedemillipede012.shtmlHelpful Reply
