first of all, centipedes commonly lay eggs in soil. life span up to few year of an adult sometimes up to 6 years.

i would suggest to throw them away, or to engage pest controller.

ChixChix,

In addition to the single link provided by our friend canely1983, there are about 7 or 8 additional pest control services on my links page as well should you decide that you need to go that direction.

Thanks SMS.. but I threw all the plants away cos I have kids at home.and wouldnt want to take the chance of having the slimy one crawling into our house. Anyways, was quite a waste cos I had 2 beautiful bamboo trees that gave the home a little resort feel.
