Garden Centipedes In My Tomato Pots

Is it alright to have garden centipedes in the soil of my potted tomatoes? Thanks!

Yes, centipedes are predators, they won't harm your tomatoes.

heheheheheee centepedes are awesome!! :twisted:

I would marry one if I were belonging to their phylum.

in my zen garden pot they flourished and made babies! They aren't as big as before but they are still in there hunting.

one of the plants in the pot was a tomatoe now that I think about it. Anyway I did enjoy their presence. It is very peaceful and majestic from a human perspective.
