looks like a house centipede

have you looked into maybe replacing your threshold or maybe installing a door sweep for the bottom of your door for a better seal?

no prob, i actually thought it was a silverfish at first, so i googled it and that led me to finding the house centipede. i hope i never see one in my house because that thing looks scary as hell LOL

those are actually poisonous and can cause severe health problems if they bite you and it's not taken care of immediately.

Actually those are beneficial bugs. They prey on other undesirable bugs like cockroaches and spiders.

They are not harmful to humans.

Anyway, some centipedes are poisonous, some not.

Even if it is poisonous, the worst you'll get is a rash from where it contacted your skin. They are nowhere near as poisonous as snakes and spiders, and they rarely "bite" as their fangs don't puncture human skin very well. Mostly the poison gets on you when they secrete it out and you get a rash in the shape of their tracks.
