Description

Belonging to the class Chilopoda, Lithobius are often misunderstood creatures. Commonly feared for their numerous legs and fast movements, these centipedes actually play a pivotal role in pest control, preying on insects that might otherwise overrun garden spaces and homes. Contrary to the eerie myths that shroud them, Lithobius are not venomous to humans and rarely interact with people unless provoked.
