Is a brown centipede poisonous?

Answer by  JasPoSF (67)

Centipedes do have a poisonous bite. However the poison is not lethal or toxic and usually just results in a small amount of pain.

The question about centipedes being poisonous is a common one. Centipedes ARE poisonous but rarely bite. If you are bitten it may hurt but it is non-lethal and non-toxic. If you have a more severe reaction seek medical aid. However Millipedes ARE NOT poisonous.
