    Anyone else having a problem with millipedes entering their houses? I am sweeping up a few every day. The neighbours have hundreds invading them so I am afraid in case the millipedes invasion spreads to us. Our outside area is kept clean and swept so just wondering if anyone knows of a product which will get rid of them or discourage then from entering.

    If you put a sign up that says "Kindly Remove Shoes Before Entering", it will take them a few weeks to do that. By which time, they will be dead...

    Is it possible you mean wood lice ?

    You can spray pesticides to get rid of them which is quite effective. Also try and keep a clean kitchen, they love all the little crumbs from our food.
