Hear a lot about millipedes but what about centipedes, does anyone keep them? Apart from size is there any other difference?

Centipedes are predatory and carnivorous.Most are venomous and some of the large species are downright dangerous.
The large species can exceed 30cm and can kill and eat an adult mouse with ease.
