What kills giant centipede?

[Maximilian]

Judging by youtube comments a shoe works well but what in nature kills these things? Theres videos on youtube of them mauling a snake/tarantua/scorpion/mouse/bat... i dont see any of a giant centipede being killed by anything.

YAYVWCAMITTV (Yet another YouTube video where comments are more interesting than the video. A small sampling:

• They're not fighting. They're trying to make a Snakipede.
  
  
  
  
  
• A Chinese guy would tossed both dem niggas in a wok and stir fried that that shit.

I'm pretty sure birds eat normal sized centipedes. Maybe you just need a really big bird.

Or Bear Grylls if they weren't as venomous.

I had a giant centipede as a pet for a few years. They are neat but extremely fast and pack a very nasty bite. They won't kill you but you would wish you would die. Mine wasn't that big... I have pede envy

only if you eat them, centipedes are the ones you have to worry about biting they are venomous

 

[Jeeebus]

I can tell you what doesn't kill giant centipede.

Me.

No fucking way I'm taking a chance hitting it with a shoe and merely pissing it off.

 

[Genx87]

A shotgun, hopefully.

Ahh, so you've seen them killing tiny snakes, tarantulas, scorpions, mice, and bats. These are all basically one step above the bottom of the food chain - which leaves plenty of other creatures to eat centipedes...

Do you think it would take this frog one or two gulps to eat a giant centipede?

Badgers eat centipedes. Yes, centipedes are nasty. They are not, however, scarier than a lion.

i lol'd

 

[Genx87]

That is a tough one at the end there. A badger vs a lion? Most bets are on the lion but damn badgers are tough SOBs!

 

[Aharami]

I would require a knee high reinforced leather boot before stepping on it

 

[Regs]

Man that's grose. Looks like one of those characters from MIB.

 

[silverpig]

I'd cut it in half with a shovel, but I'd be worried that then there'd be two of them things running around.

Not sure but you might find an answer here.

Speaking of lions, did you know that there was this one tiger that killed like 400 people back in the day?
