I was hoping that we dealt with the centipede problem after killing the centipede in our bed last night. Then this morning Trinh discovered this five-inch monster hiding inside a dress hanging on the bedroom door. I unsuccessfully tried to kill it with my shoe, but it just ran under the bed. Trinh ran right after it, somehow squeezing herself under the bed armed with the other shoe, pounding the centipede until it mostly stopped moving. Damn those things are hard to kill.

How about a machete?
I considered a pair of scissors, but thought that might not be so good for Trinh’s dress.
Those things are genuinely scary! Sounds like you psyched yourslves up into a proper jihad, though.
That little icon picture of you above is genuinely scary also. Does it enlarge?
Leave them a treat with a sprinkling of whatever to kill them off. I leave a shallow tin with boric acid and sugar in the sink for the roaches.
