"By definition" all Centipedes are Poisonous : They are Carnivorous creatures, However, The most Common Species , fully grown , can bite Humans : their bites are usually "harmless" to adults ( just very annoying , can cause inflammation ): they have little to no lasting side effects. : you could liken it to the effects of a Bee Sting .
