My First Mukade

This was not entirely fun but at least I was surrounded by other people and brave male centipede warriors and not trying to deal with it at home. Alone.

Apparently the one that we saw, and subsequently destroyed, was a dust mukade. It was about 10cm long and they are kinda hairy looking with really long thin legs. They also have an upturned tail that they say can sting. Apparently they tend to lurk in pairs and if you kill one you have to burn it in order to prevent its partner from coming to find it. I remember seeing smaller, similar looking ones in Woodstock.
