Well if you have centipedes and your seeing them
multiple times around your plant then I would assume you have
some sort of pest problem because centipedes
feed on other bugs like spiders,mites,beetles,slugs...etc.
so there hanging around your plants because its a good
hunting ground much like how a spider sets up its web
in a place with heavy traffic(of bugs).
That being said centipedes have been known to eat plants when
starved but I think that is highly unlikely in your case.
Try to rid of the dirty bastards and see if that helps
More then likely its something other then the centipedes
its what there eating so that might be the reason
its harder to find anything else.
Good luck.
