Re: Centipedes

Square Foot Gardening List - http://www.flinet.com/~gallus/sqft.html

Centipedes are predators, they weed out the sick and keep everyone on their
toes.

I have them in my worm bins, which I don't worry about, even though they may
take a baby worm here and there.

Balance of nature, eh?

>There is a rotten stump next to my compost pile. I just went out there and
was able to chop it apart easily with just my trusty spade shovel. There
were several centipedes in the pile of rubble. Now I now that milipedes are
harmless but would it be safe to put the remains of the stump with the
centipedes in the compost or should I just pitch it? TIA.
