That is a very common house centipede:

they are actually very good to have around because they are good predators of other pest insects. This is the first you have seen?!? you must live in a totally bug free environment! No arthropods allowed at Meno's!

thanks for the link dj. i've never seen one before. the only things that i've seen lurking about the house a spiders, daddy long legs or barn spiders. other than that, whatever crawls around outside, stays outside.

Hey DJ and Meno. Definately one ugly bug. I looked it up and yes it is a centipede, "scutigera" is the name of the type. Here in good ol New Mexico, we have a wide range of bugs, from ten inch centipedes "No shit", to all sorts of scorpions and spiders. Again, like DJ said, it's another bug with no serious poison, unless your allergic. Now with centipedes in NM, there usually pretty thick, kinda redish/yellow with black blocks on the outer skin, with really thick short legs. More..

but i've lived in new mexico almost all my life and never have seen one until this morning. as for the other centipede, the scolopendra viridis, i've never seen one of those either, and hope i never do, but have heard of them. i have seen a silver fish here and there, but not a whole lot.

OBTW, poisonous - yes to the degree it can kill another insect by injecting venom into it. Generally incapable of biting through the layers of human skin. If somehow it managed to, it might result in an uncomfortable blemish in your skin that will quickly heal. Don't kill it unless you want other less desirable insects in your house! If you have an allergy to centipedes then you might consider exterminating them otherwise let nature take it's natural course...

Its called a silver fish, or a centipede... either way its probably harmless.
Silver fish ruined my honeymoon, they should be killed on sight

A common household 'thousand legger'. For some reason, you tend to see them around areas where moisture is present. Creepy, but harmless.
