Our Method

Our Unique Approach To Centipedes Control

We take a unique approach to centipede control. We arrive to your property and do a perimter spray around the yard, gardens, patios and/or anywhere else that we may find Centipedes located. Every time you cut your grass or trim your trees, the product we applied disappears. Also, extended periods of rainfall lower the efficacy of the product. Therefore, treating your yard once a year is enough to significantly reduce the centipede population in your yard. Learn more about our approach.

Initial Inspection

A trained specialist will perform an inspection to examine the size of your yard and the density of your foliage through seeing your property on google earth. This step will help us set a final price!
Upon arrival, your technician will also look for signs of centipedes or mosquitoes and identify potential breeding grounds.

Exterior Treatment

Your technician will then safely treat your entire yard with a centipedes treatment, targeting trees, bushes, shrubs, and other heavily wooded areas. We’ll then return between Spring and Fall to inspect and treat your yard once again.

Questions

Frequently Asked Questions — Centipedes Control Canada

Can’t find your answer? Our team is always happy to help.

What Are Centipedes?
Centipedes are fast-moving arthropods with multiple pairs of legs. They commonly inhabit moist, sheltered locations and feed on other small insects and arthropods.
Most household centipedes are primarily nuisance pests. They can bite when handled or threatened, but they are not known to transmit Lyme disease. Avoid handling them directly.
Centipedes favour damp, sheltered environments where other small insects are available as prey. Basements may provide moisture, hiding places, and access through structural gaps.
Mosquito Man provides property inspection, identification of activity areas, targeted indoor or outdoor treatment according to the selected service, and prevention guidance.
Home Protection (Indoor) includes two scheduled centipede-control treatments 14 days apart, focusing on basements, bathrooms, utility rooms, storage spaces, and other damp areas.
Home Protection (Outdoor) includes two scheduled outdoor pest-control treatments at 90-day intervals for spiders, earwigs, ants, and other outdoor insects.
Reduce excess moisture, repair leaks, improve ventilation where needed, address accessible entry points, and monitor other indoor insect activity. Follow the technician’s property-specific recommendations.
Centipede control is available in Ontario communities including Toronto, Brampton, Burlington, Hamilton, Kitchener, London, Windsor, and surrounding service areas. Enter your city or postal code to confirm availability.

Pest Control in Across Canada

Professional Centipede Control Across Canada

Centipedes are fast-moving arthropods that generally prefer moist, sheltered environments. They feed on other small insects and arthropods and may enter homes through gaps around foundations, doors, windows, and utility openings.

Indoor sightings are particularly common in basements, bathrooms, utility rooms, and storage spaces where moisture and suitable hiding places are available.

Although centipedes can bite when handled or threatened, they are not known to transmit Lyme disease. Most household encounters involve nuisance activity rather than a serious health threat.

Mosquito Man offers indoor and outdoor centipede-control options. The indoor Home Protection program includes two scheduled treatments 14 days apart, focusing on damp areas where centipedes commonly appear. Outdoor treatment targets suitable perimeter areas and locations around yards, gardens, patios, trees, and shrubs.

Reducing excess moisture, addressing accessible entry points, and managing other indoor insects can support the treatment process.

Our 5-Step Centipede Control Process

Icon Center

Step 1

Inspect the Property for Centipede Activity

A technician assesses the property to identify visible centipedes and areas where activity has been reported.

Inspection focuses on suitable indoor or outdoor locations according to the selected service.

Icon Center 1

Step 2

Identify Moisture, Shelter, and Entry Points

The technician examines damp areas, sheltered spaces, and accessible openings that may contribute to centipede activity.

Indoor attention may include basements, bathrooms, utility rooms, and storage areas. Outdoor attention may include foundations, patios, gardens, and vegetation.

Icon Center 2

Step 3

Develop a Property-Specific Treatment Plan

Treatment planning considers the extent of activity, affected locations, property size, accessibility, and the selected Home Protection option.

The technician identifies appropriate treatment areas and provides relevant preparation instructions.

Icon Center 3

Step 4

Apply Targeted Centipede Treatment

The technician treats suitable areas identified during inspection.

Indoor treatment focuses on appropriate locations in damp rooms and other activity areas. Outdoor treatment may target perimeter locations, gardens, patios, trees, shrubs, and other suitable exterior spaces.

Applications follow product-label directions and the technician’s safety instructions.

Step 5

Complete Scheduled Treatments and Recommend Prevention

The technician may also recommend moisture reduction, attention to accessible entry points, and continued monitoring.

Canadian Seasonal Centipede Control Calendar

January–February

Indoor centipedes may remain active in heated, damp spaces

Inspect basements, bathrooms, utility rooms, and storage areas where centipedes may remain active in heated, damp spaces.

March–April

Increasing moisture and changing temperatures may influence activity

Check foundations, basement walls, drainage areas, and sheltered spaces where changing temperatures and moisture may influence centipede activity.

May–June

Outdoor activity may increase as conditions become warmer

Monitor gardens, patios, foundations, mulch, and vegetation as warmer conditions may increase outdoor centipede activity.

Active Season

July–August

Warm, humid conditions may support activity indoors and outdoors

Inspect damp rooms, landscaping, shaded areas, and entry points where warm, humid conditions may support centipede activity.

September–October

Centipedes may continue appearing in sheltered locations as temperatures decline

Monitor foundations, basement areas, utility openings, and nearby vegetation where centipedes may continue appearing as temperatures decline.

November–December

Outdoor activity generally declines while indoor activity may continue

Check heated, damp spaces and address accessible structural gaps where centipedes may continue indoor activity as outdoor conditions become colder.

In Ontario, centipede activity is influenced by moisture, shelter, temperature, and the availability of prey. Outdoor sightings may be more noticeable during warmer months, while indoor activity can continue throughout the year in suitable conditions.
