Do You Need Millipedes Removal Services?
Millipedes are often viewed as harmless, but their presence in large numbers can lead to significant nuisance and potential issues for homeowners. While millipedes don't bite, sting, or transmit diseases, they can cause indirect damage and discomfort in the following ways:
- Property Nuisance: Millipedes can invade homes in large numbers, especially during damp weather or seasonal migrations. They often enter through cracks, gaps, or under doors, accumulating in basements, bathrooms, and other humid areas. These infestations can be overwhelming and unsightly, particularly if millipedes begin to cluster in visible spaces or die, leaving behind unpleasant messes.
- Odor and Staining Issues: When disturbed or crushed, millipedes release a foul-smelling fluid as a defense mechanism. This secretion can stain floors, walls, and other surfaces, making cleanup more difficult. The odor can linger, especially in enclosed spaces, contributing to a less pleasant indoor environment.
- Damage to Gardens and Plants: Outdoors, millipedes primarily feed on decaying organic matter. However, during times of food scarcity, they may begin to nibble on tender plants, seedlings, and fruit. While they are not as destructive as other pests like slugs or caterpillars, a large population of millipedes can still cause noticeable damage in home gardens.
- Secondary Pest Issues: A millipede infestation may indicate underlying problems, such as excess moisture or decaying organic matter near your home. These conditions can attract other pests like ants, termites, and centipedes, leading to additional pest control challenges.
If millipedes are causing problems in your home or garden, professional pest control services can help remove the infestation and prevent future issues. Eliminate 'Em's experts will not only eliminate the pests but also address the underlying causes to keep your property safe and pest-free.

Marco inspected the chimney and determined we had chimney swifts. He said we had to wait and cap the chimney in the fall. He saved me $2700 because another company told me they were bats which they weren’t . Only paid for a service call of $125 . Thanks Marco

From the moment he walked into our home up through today Collin Green left no stone unturned. He did a thorough inspection from the top of our 3-story home to the basement and told us exactly what was found and needed for mice control. THE ONLY reason we are not moving forward is because my husband is focused on exclusion services and while you guys do offer them, another company was a bit stronger and gives us all the other things as well. That was the ONLY reason. THANK YOU Collin for taking all of my calls, answering all of my texts and emails! Again EVERY question was answered. We will be using your sanitizing program for sure. On top of that, the current company states we should not need them in a year or so. You will be back if that is the case for sure.

This was the second exterminator I had to use for a bed bug infestation. Months of my daughters getting bitten. Three treatments from an inferior service. Oh My Gosh! Sean is Amazing! This company cared about my home and my family. They talked me through how to prep the house for a proper treatment. Do not waste your time with other exterminators. Get the job done well with Eliminate 'Em Pest Control Services.

I wish I could give more than 4 stars. Discovered a Yellow Jacket nest under the deck of the pool on July 3 with large family picnic the next day. Other services closed observing the 4th of July. Exterminator was at my home within 2 hours and the nest gone within a half hour! Thank you Ray Rosario! You saved our holiday!
