Centipede, Virginia
Found this one on the wall of my garage. There are about 8,000 species of centipede around the world with more to be discovered. The main difference between millipedes and centipedes is that centipedes have fangs (visible in this image) which they use to dispatch small prey. With the exception of some tropical species, centipedes are harmless to humans -- in fact, they make good house guests since they will get rid of other small insects. Millipedes do not have fangs, and are harmless scavengers.
