The story of how one man came to love house centipedes
Excerpt:I’ve been called a lot of strange things in my life, but I never thought I could be called a nematode-lover.

We’re definitely not “bug people,” so what turned us around?
Read on for the rest of the story here. Will this change the way you look at these 'creatures'?
Insects?
