Posted: Mon May 12, 2008 11:27 am Post subject: Sort of got away from me...
While rehousing a number of "Chinese Giant" Scolopendra, (shameless sales plug) one got away from me in the bathroom. I didn't think there was anywhere it could go as it scampered under the counter and into a pile of my Victoria's Secret unmentionables. When I finally stepped down from off the toilet, I carefully went through each silky piece but to no avail. The only place it could have gone was a .25" crack in the elegant vinyl floor tile leading into the back of the cabinet somewhere. At this point, I'm thinking about just caulking that sucker in eternal hell. Probably plenty of silverfish and lateralis to eat in there. _________________ Crazy Dave's Inverts - "Your prescription for arachnid addiction"
Chances are it can get to more places from there. But, since its the floor tile, maybe its stuck against the subflooring.
I would seal off the cabinet and take out everything in there ...put a box full of moist substrate in there and hope she takes the bait.
you should just hire me to <edit> and when it takes the bait i will pop it in a cage for you _________________

There may be people who like centipedes. I have seen people handling tarantulas and scorpions, but never a centipede handler. I would regard such a person with deep suspicion...Now what sort of man or woman or monster would stroke a centipede on its underbelly "And here is my big good centipede." If such a man exists, I say kill him without more ado. He is a traitor to the human race.
