Are house centipedes poisonous to cats?
My husband and I just moved into a new home with our two cats and we’ve noticed quite a lot of house centipedes. I just want to make sure our kitties aren’t in any danger. Are house centipedes poisonous to cats?

Congratulations on your new home! House centipedes are harmless to cats, so there’s no need to worry there. They also pose no threat to human health or your property.
House centipedes generally hang around areas where they can prey on cockroaches and spiders. So if you think you have a lot of these insects in your area, that is likely drawing the centipedes to your property.
If you choose to call an exterminator and have these pests removed, know that your home insurance will not cover the costs. However, you can sign up on the
