Millipedes invade public areas in Punggol Place

Dylan Loh Channel NewsAsia 4 Apr 11;

SINGAPORE: Residents in Punggol Place have some unwelcome visitors, with creepy-crawlies worming their way into several common places.

A caller to the MediaCorp hotline said the millipedes started appearing last December and that he has raised the issue with the area's Town Council which has promised to take action.

Apparently, these creatures are "sharing the public space" because soil in the area has not been treated with certain chemicals.
