Why do centipedes appear in flowerpots at home?
There are centipedes in flowerpots because there is no nutrient soil that has been fermented and decomposed, and there are many pests and diseases in the soil. Animal manure, crop stalks and leftovers all contain germs, eggs and viruses. If directly applied to the soil, they will spread, breed and hatch in the soil, endangering crop growth and breaking out pests and diseases. Because centipedes like damp and dark environment, they can raise the flowerpot, enhance the ventilation effect, remove soil moisture and prevent centipedes.
To eliminate centipedes, you can move the flowerpot with centipedes outside, dump the soil in the pot and replace it with new soil, which can be completely removed and harmless to the flowers. Or move the flowerpot to a sunny place, keep the bottom of the flowerpot ventilated, put pesticides in the tray, and kill the centipede directly when it comes out.
Centipede is afraid of the sun. It doesn't sleep during the day and comes out at night. It likes to live in a dark, warm, rain-proof and ventilated place. Scolopes likes to live in hilly areas and sandy land. During the day, they often lurk in the cracks of masonry, under the roots of walls, and in the dark corners of piles of leaves, weeds and rotten wood. At night, they come out to feed on caterpillars, spiders and cockroaches. Centipede has a strong ability to drill seams. It often uses its sensitive tentacles and flat head plate to explore joints, and most of the gaps between rocks and land can pass through or inhabit.
