Myself & a fellow arachnophobe got close enough to take this picture. That’s a big step.

Scutigera coleoptrata, or House Centipede
I used to be creeped out by the House Centipede’s intense spideriness, but these little dudes are actually very helpful: they eat other bugs (including spiders!) and won’t bother you a bit. They live mostly indoors and have a lifespan of up to a year and a half.
Little dudes, you are welcome in my place from this day forth!
