Millipede, Narceus americanus, found throughout the community in planter beds and wooded areas. Although they look dangerous, millipedes are not poisonous, but they do secrete a substance that can irritate the skin, if you are sensitive to it. This one was found in the conservation area behind Eagle Ridge.
