Centipede & Millipede Control in Reno
Tailored Centipede & Millipede Control Without Long-Term Contracts
Recurring centipede or millipede sightings may point to moisture, sheltered areas, organic debris, accessible entry points, or other small insects around the property. We tailor centipede control in Reno to what our inspection reveals rather than applying the same treatment to every building.
We provide personalized pest control for homeowners, property managers, and business owners. Our technicians evaluate interior and exterior conditions before recommending a plan, and we don’t require long-term contracts.
Call (775) 256-9044 to request an inspection and discuss centipede or millipede activity at your home or business.
Centipedes & Millipedes Require Different Control Plans
Correct identification shapes the service approach. Centipedes have one pair of legs per body segment and hunt insects and other small prey. They may be found in dark, protected spaces where prey and moisture are available.
Millipedes generally have two pairs of legs per body segment and feed on decaying organic matter. They commonly gather around damp mulch, leaf litter, shaded ground cover, and deteriorating vegetation. Millipede control in Reno may therefore focus more heavily on exterior moisture, debris, and movement from outdoor areas into the structure.
Our Reno Centipede & Millipede Inspection Process
Our licensed and certified technicians inspect areas where pests are active and look for conditions connected to those sightings. The evaluation considers whether activity is concentrated indoors, outdoors, or at points connecting the two environments.
An inspection may consider:
- Pest identification: Whether the observed pest is a centipede, millipede, or another similar-looking arthropod.
- Interior activity: Conditions around baseboards, garages, storage areas, crawl spaces, attics, and utility spaces.
- Exterior habitat: Moisture, mulch, leaf litter, wood piles, vegetation, and shelter near the foundation.
- Structural access: Door thresholds, vents, utility penetrations, foundation gaps, and other potential entry points.
- Related pest activity: Small insects that may provide food for predatory centipedes.
We develop recommendations around the building, the pest concern, and your preferences. Environmentally friendly options are available and selected with families, pets, and the treatment area in mind. Our technicians also arrive in fully equipped service vehicles, prepared to perform the recommended work.
Residential & Commercial Pest Control Since 1999
As a family-owned business serving Northern Nevada since 1999, we understand how pest activity can differ between homes and commercial properties. Residential concerns may involve bathrooms, garages, or crawl spaces, while commercial activity may affect storage, employee, customer-facing, or exterior areas.
We offer fair, competitive rates without hidden fees. Follow-up visits and ongoing maintenance plans are available when recurring activity or continuing conditions call for additional attention, but we don’t require a long-term contract.

What a Centipede or Millipede Control Plan May Include
A control plan may combine identification, interior and exterior inspection, habitat modification, moisture management, exclusion measures, and targeted applications where appropriate. Recommendations depend on the pest, activity locations, building conditions, and surrounding habitat.
Any pesticide should be used according to its product label, with consideration for people, pets, non-target organisms, and the treatment area. Follow-up evaluation may be appropriate when activity recurs or contributing conditions remain.
How to Prepare for a Pest Inspection
Before the inspection, record where the pests were seen, how often they appear, and whether activity is concentrated near moisture, debris, storage, or exterior doors. Photos or a captured specimen can aid centipede identification or millipede identification when the pest isn’t present during the inspection.
Commercial property managers should also note whether sightings affect storage areas, workspaces, customer-facing rooms, loading areas, or landscaping. These details give our technician a clearer view of the activity pattern and the areas requiring evaluation.
Property owners can often handle routine cleanup and accessible moisture corrections. Pest treatment requires appropriate product selection and application, while plumbing, drainage, ventilation, or structural deficiencies may require a qualified repair professional.
