Call PestGuardians in New Mexico to discuss centipede and millipede control, addressing a genuinely venomous desert species alongside routine millipede nuisance, across all 50 cities we cover statewide.
Call (844) 924-1337One of these two pests genuinely deserves more concern than the other. New Mexico's giant desert centipede grows noticeably larger and shows far bolder coloring than the house centipedes found in most states, and its bite carries actual venom, painful though rarely dangerous medically, serious enough that a homeowner spotting one wants it identified and handled faster than a routine house centipede sighting.
That centipede sticks to the same damp, undisturbed hiding spots common throughout New Mexico's pest landscape, tucked into woodpiles, rock piles, and clutter, most established across the southern desert. Millipedes tell a calmer story: they thrive wherever irrigated garden beds and mulched landscaping give the state's naturally dry ground some consistent moisture, then turn up by the dozens on foundations and walkways whenever a rare heavy downpour floods them out of soaked soil. Genuine venomous risk on one side, routine irrigation driven nuisance on the other, this single service straddles two very different levels of concern in New Mexico. Call (844) 924-1337 for centipede & millipede control questions and availability in your part of New Mexico.
We haven't yet built individual city pages pairing Centipede & Millipede Control with a specific New Mexico city, the way we have for a few other states, so there's no per-city detail to report honestly in this section right now. What you read above is real, New Mexico-specific research, drawn from the actual conditions that drive demand statewide, not a generic description recycled from another state's page, but it isn't broken down city by city yet.
Call with your city to discuss the pest concern and check local service availability.
As city-level Centipede & Millipede Control pages go live for New Mexico, this section will update to reflect genuine local details the same way it already does for some other states. We'd rather tell you that plainly than invent a city-by-city breakdown that doesn't exist yet.

Call (844) 924-1337New Mexico requires a Commercial Applicator license from the New Mexico Department of Agriculture before centipede & millipede control can proceed for hire, certified in the category matching the actual work. Category 7A covers general structural and household pests, the category most insect and general nuisance work falls under, and getting certified means passing an exam specific to that category. New Mexico's system splits several other kinds of pest work into their own dedicated categories entirely: 7B for vertebrate pests like rodents, bats, and birds invading structures, 7C for fumigation, and 7D for termites, carpenter ants, and other wood destroying organisms, the last of which requires a documented year of hands on experience before an applicator can even sit for the exam. For the full explanation of how New Mexico's licensing works, see our New Mexico coverage page.
Call anyway; we maintain coverage that is not always reflected yet in every city page.
Its bite is painful and venomous, though rarely medically serious, but that's still more urgent than the harmless house centipedes found in most other states, making identification and removal a higher priority request here.
It's worth asking. New Mexico requires a Commercial Applicator license in Category 7A for general structural and household work, issued through the Department of Agriculture. Before booking, ask which credentials apply to the proposed work and how to confirm them with the issuing authority.
No. Pricing varies by city, the specifics of the job, and whether you need a one-time visit or an ongoing plan. Ask about the proposed scope and costs before deciding to book. Call to discuss the work needed and request a quote for your property.
