Answer 7

That is a house centipede... Creepy, I know. We get them from time to time in our house when it gets warm outside, mostly when it's damp.

They are so creepy with all those legs & they are really quick & they can get HUGE. They say they are good to have because they eat spiders, but I can't deal with them & I squish them when I see them.

If you buy Ortho Home & Perimeter spray, it will kill most of them.

Here's a link to them at wikipedia:
