Lynsey,

Millipedes sometimes have irregular “migrations” where they can enter buildings 
in large numbers. I’m not sure if we understand why. Try correcting any damp 
situations outside (e.g., mulch or leaf litter next to the building), seal 
cracks, and, if possible, keep an 18- to 36-inch vegetation-free zone around 
the building.

Hi there,

One of the properties we manage is experiencing a problem with what appear to 
be millipedes – please see first image attached. I’m not sure that they are 
considered a museum pest, but believe that they are an indication of damp 
(which we’re already aware of). Can anyone provide any other advice on why we 
may be seeing a sudden influx of these?

Additionally, another insect has been spotted that we can’t identify (second 
image). Does anyone recognise this?

Many thanks,


Lynsey
