Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Why do I have so many millipedes?

Millipedes build up in the damp leaf litter and the mulch, then move onto the foundation walls and the walkways after rain as the ground dries.

Q: Where do they come from?

They come from the damp soil and the organic matter around the foundation. Removing the harborage and treating the perimeter stops the migration.
