centipedes... wtf

Are they centipedes or millipedes? Centipedes have a slightly flattened body with only one pair of legs per segment and usually prominent antennae. Millipedes have rounded, tubular bodies with two pairs of legs per segment.
Centipedes are carnivores and eat insects or other tiny pests. They are venomous but the bite while painful is not dangerous unless you are allergic to the venom.
Millipedes eat decaying plant matter, but they also munch on seedlings and can cause severe damage. Most likely you have millipedes.
Dispatch them and feed 'em to your plants.

A woman I work with used to live in Malaysia and she talkes about how they would have 1.5 foot long centipedes crawling on the ceiling of her residence; even better was if you kill a centipede you get cursed by the spirits over there, so the local police would not dispatch the creatures! Ugh.
xvart.
xvart.
But I suggest you send them to me.
