Have you got more details? Tannish in color, could be a house centipede - Scutigera coleoptrata. One of my last apartments was infested with these things. Nothing like sitting on the couch watching TV, and seeing someting tan with black stripes racing across the floor.

They look a little different from your standard centipede, but they do have a weak venom - At most, no worse then a mosquito bite. Actually good to have some around because they eat other nasties that may be living in your home/apartment, even if they do give one the willies.

Millipedes have 4 legs per segment, centipedes have only 2. That is how you can tell the difference.

The answer is a millipede, with over 100 legs.

I quite have a e book stated as the immature bugs which even on a stable day is a venture for me with the insect in hand. in spite of a photograph, except there is a few thing unusual approximately it, it would be almost impossible to become responsive to. I propose you have 2 suggestions; a million. take your larvae to a community college and spot somebody in entomology. 2. detect a stable field and look ahead to it to mature. grownup bugs are plenty less demanding to become responsive to.
