Millipedes have two primary defenses: chemical secretion and physical deterrents. When threatened, they can release toxic chemicals, such as benzoquinones, that deter predators and can cause irritation or harm. Additionally, many millipede species possess a hard exoskeleton and can curl into a tight coil to protect their vulnerable undersides, making it difficult for predators to access them.
