I agree with @mossloft. I would also add if it's safe for fish it's usually safe for invertebrates, at least when it comes to natural wood and such. Just make sure the wood is resting on the bottom of the enclosure and not the substrate, as otherwise the millipedes will burrow underneath and it will eventually collapse, thus crushing them.

Thanks,

do you guys know anywhere to buy oak pieces safe for millipede use?
I think your best bet would be looking around in areas that aren't treated by fertilizers or pesticides, if you can't find any to buy. I've never bought large branches like that for my enclosure so I'm not entirely sure.
