Looks like a house centipede to me. Something for scale would be useful

Hmm yes, could be, thanks! As i read, they do exist here where i live.

For scale: Small and big spoons..?

[โ€“] Mothra@mander.xyz 13 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Gee! I didn't notice the spoons until you mentioned it, sorry! Must be a very small centipede then. Fully grown ones are about 10cm long, and they are very, very, very very fast. (But harmless)

Ah ok! havent seen them around here alive anywhere, maybe cause they re nightactive, as i read.. The spoons are not too obvious in the pic, so understandable. Thank you again for all the info
