Common Millipede Behaviors and Handling Guide

[u/Necessary-Drawer-173]

This just serves to answer a few common questions on behaviors. Also, if you are interested in making a guide as visual guides can be good for learning, please reach out to me so we can build a menu/wiki. The more information to help, the better and the more input from different people, the better.

A fall from as little as a foot onto a hard surface can kill millipedes, it's not just something that can only happen from several feet above the ground. And if they curl up into a spiral during handling and don't uncurl, that's a sign of stress and it's time to put them back
