The first 1024 bytes are the red channel values, the next 1024 the green, and the final 1024 the blue. The next 3072 bytes are the values of the pixels of the image. They are nothing to be feared, and we advise that our reader safely return them to the outdoors, as well as follow the methods listed above to prevent future intrusions.In other words, the first byte is the label of the first image, which is a number in the range 0-9. To conclude, the worm-like creatures our reader found in her bathroom are millipedes.

Other signs that may indicate a leak include foul smells and warped floorboards or walls (depending on where the leak is). It is not impossible that these millipedes in particular crawled up through our reader’s drains, given that they were found in her toilet and wash basin, and this may imply that there is a leak somewhere in her pipes through which the millipedes were able to crawl. One can also prevent millipedes from entering the home by removing leaf litter and other organic debris that may be piled up against the side of one’s home, as well as by removing piles of leaves, rocks or sticks from one’s yard that could provide the perfect shelter for millipedes. If one finds a lot of them in one’s house, it could point to high levels of humidity in the home, as this is the type of climate that millipedes prefer.

Millipedes are benevolent, environmentally-beneficial creatures that should not be feared, nor harmed. What we think happened in this second photo is that the poor resolution of the photo did not capture its small legs, which might also have been semi-transparent or white. In fact, the second photo below really had us fooled that this creature really did not have any legs: usually a millipede’s legs are only not visible from above, as they grow from its underside. This is based on the creature’s segmented body, the antennae, and its apparent lack of legs. From the picture alone, we would say that this is a millipede.
