Parent Tip: Encourage your child to observe insects safely from a distance. Teach them to admire but not touch, especially unfamiliar bugs.

Centipedes are aggressive predators that hunt spiders and insects as well as some other types of arthropods. They move quickly and use their many legs to capture and hold onto their prey. Each leg has a claw-like appendage that centipedes use to inject venom, which subdues their prey.
