House centipedes hunt prey, not moisture, which is why Wellington's older basements draw them in more than the yard ever does.
Call (844) 924-1337Quite a few of Wellington's oldest houses, standing since not long after the town's 1902 start, are old enough now to have a damp basement corner supporting the small insects centipedes actually chase. Millipedes need a steadier supply of decaying organic matter than the dry high plains around Wellington usually offers, so they stay a minor, occasional presence.
Finding one indoors usually points straight back to that damp basement corner rather than anything happening seasonally outside. Call (844) 924-1337 to discuss pest control help in Wellington and check service availability.

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 basements 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.
