Why Centipedes Are a Problem in Aiea
Aiea sits on hillside terrain rising from Pearl Harbor, with valley microclimates that trap humidity and mature tropical landscaping throughout older neighborhoods. Centipedes thrive in moist shaded areas — rock walls, mulch beds, potted plants, irrigation lines, and the transition zone between yard and house, which is exactly what Aiea offers — older hillside housing stock, valley humidity, and proximity to Pearl Harbor's waterfront create year-round pest pressure.

Centipedes are one of the most feared household pests in Hawaii. The Vietnamese centipede, which can grow up to eight inches long, is commonly found across Oahu. These fast-moving predators are nocturnal, hiding in dark, moist areas during the day and emerging at night to hunt insects and other small prey.
