A Millipede is an insect and non-perishable food item.

Usage

Fishing

Main article: Fishing

Centipedes can technically be used as bait for fishing. However, current fish only respond to Little Bait Fish, Worm, Cricket, Grasshopper, Cockroach and Maggots as bait, so doing so is not advised.

Consumable properties

Centipedes can be consumed, reducing hunger at the cost of a lot of unhappiness, and with a chance of sickening the player when uncooked. They can be cooked to reduce more hunger and make safe for consumption, however the unhappiness effect will remain.

Uncooked	Cooked	Burned
Hunger: -5 Unhappiness: +20 Dangerous uncooked, may cause sickness.	Hunger: -7 Unhappiness: +20	Hunger: -2 Boredom: +20 Unhappiness: +40 Dangerous, will cause sickness.

Foraging

Main article: Foraging

When foraging, millipedes can be found on natural_exterior tiles, such as grass, sand and gravel. They are equally common in all foraging areas, and can be found in all seasons but Winter, March through November. However, while forageable in Spring they are less likely to be found in March and April than other months.

Having the fisherman occupation or angler trait will increase the player's ability to find centipedes.

Centipedes are part of the "Animals" loot category.
