I've been considering a centipede lately so what type of enclosure would really be escape proof as I hear quite often about how pedes are great escape artists.
Probably because it's not a secret how to make them escape-proof and there are many threads about how to accomplish it Matter-of-fact, now that you've created a thread there are links at the bottom of your thread that are related. It often gets me sidetracked when I'm trying to find specific information lol.well this got a lot of replies.
Possibly S. heros due to somewhat lower humidity demands, nice colors, and based on bite reports painful but not nearly as bad as some other pedes which if I'm correct can do long term nerve damage (though I don't plan on doing anything stupid and getting myself bit)Height is probably your first defense. A tall slick enclosure is best, along with a lid that locks and it cant bite through (like thin mesh or something, that's easy to breach). I don't have experience with bigger pedes like gigantea, but I assume the same applies, although there might be another trick or two. I'm sure the more experienced keepers can give you more advice.
What kind of pede you thinking about getting?
