Centipede and millipede control for Ontario, where activity concentrates on whichever yards actually get watered.
Call (844) 924-1337Ontario sits in a part of the state where summers run dry for months, so centipedes and millipedes, both of which need a steady source of water, end up wherever a property is watered or otherwise kept moist rather than spread out evenly across town. That shows up clearly along Euclid Avenue and the surrounding colony grid, where landscaping planted since George Chaffey's 1882 irrigation colony still gets watered heavily enough to hold moisture the rest of the inland valley lacks.
Millipedes feed on decaying material in mulch and thatch and become noticeably more active right after watering or rainfall. Centipedes work differently: rather than eating plants, they hunt smaller insects, so spotting one usually means another pest is already present nearby. Newer subdivisions near the airport and warehouse corridor, with far less mature landscaping, generally see much less of either pest.

Treatment can reduce and often eliminate centipede activity, especially when it addresses the moisture conditions that are drawing them in, not just the centipedes you can see. Discuss the sightings, moisture conditions, and possible entry points when asking about an inspection and treatment options.
Describe whether you are seeing a group arriving from outdoors or repeated sightings inside. Mention any activity around irrigated areas, mulched beds, and damp areas. Explain whether it followed rain or watering and whether other insects are present. These observations give the inspection a clearer starting point than treating every many-legged pest as the same problem.
Bathrooms are a common spot for centipedes because of the moisture, so control usually involves addressing humidity or leaks in addition to treating the pest directly. Checking the bathroom and adjacent areas for moisture and other insects helps identify what is drawing centipedes indoors.
House-wide centipede control typically starts with identifying every damp area and entry point they could be using, not just the room where you've seen them. An inspection helps establish the extent of the activity and which treatment options fit the findings.
