All things serve the Beam
Centipedes are poisonous. Many of the larger centipedes have an unpleasant bite and the poison of some giant species can be dangerous to humans, especially children. I'm not sure if ALL species are poisonous, but I personally wouldn't chance it. I'd call my vet ASAP.

"We give dogs the time we can spare, the space we can spare and the love we can spare. And in return, dogs give us their all. It's the best deal man has ever made" - M. Facklam
"We are raised to honor all the wrong explorers and discoverers - thieves planting flags, murderers carrying crosses. Let us at last praise the colonizers of dreams."- P.S. Beagle
"All that is gold does not glitter, Not all those who wander are lost; The old that is strong does not wither, Deep roots are not reached by the frost. From the ashes a fire shall be woken, A light from the shadows shall spring; Renewed shall be blade that was broken, The crownless again shall be king." - J.R.R. Tolkien
