Spotting

Description:

Long centipede about 12-15cm, 1cm wide. Dark yellow body with black to navy stripes at the junction of segments. Dark yellow legs, Red to orange head and tail. Fierce and fast!

Habitat:

Found inside house in urban area

Notes:

This mean centipede was found in the house, he bit one of my guests whilst in their bed, was discovered in the bed clothes and released into the garden. Very ungrateful mean creature, not at all willing to be captured and not happy to be released into daylight.
