I still haven't been bitten by this species - a tantalising prospect indeed.

It won't kill you (unless you're allergic)...but it will hurt...a bit...I got bitten by one last week on the coutryside...

They're pretty aggresive, but not dangerous :)

Ps: I'm keeping centipedes for ~6 years and still haven't been bitten ;)

I got bitten when I was lifting a rock (my older daughter wanted to see if were there any nice "bugs" under it...) and the little bastard was right on the spot where I placed my hand... first time something like that ever happened... I am glad it was not a buthus ibericus...
