1 A detritivore such as the millipede is an herbivore that eats decaying plant material. 2  Millipedes have four legs per body segment; centipedes have two.  Millipedes are slow-moving herbivores. Centipedes are fast-moving carnivores; they're often brightly colored to warn predators of their venom.
Also most millipedes are nocturnal. They are generally speaking harmless but most species have a series of metathoracic glands which produce a repellent substance which they can exude when they feel threatened. In some larger species this fluid can be corrosive and cause blistering of the skin in large doses.
