Weird worm things around plants?

[mychamybilo]

I have a dracena in my chameleons cage, and I washed the plant with soap and everything nothing seemed to be on it, but today I looked down on the floor of his cage and there were these weird looking worm things, very tiny I took the ones I could see out but I was wondering if anyone else has had this happen or knows anything about them?

looks like a centipede or a hairy caterpillar

Its very thin, and not very long. It was near the soil/bottom of the cage. I'm hoping it was just a thing that eats the soil or something harmless.

it could be anything pic is too blurry to make anything out. Could be one of those small millipedes you find in dirt all the time, or a small centipede as said before

I'm actually not sure, I believe 3 months? I just got him today from Jim at Chameleon Company, he's a Nosy Be sired by Greaseball!

edit: yeah sorry about the pictures quality, if there are a few still in there and they are only in the dirt is it ok?

It's a millipede. They'll keep your soil clean.

Alright so no harm towards the chameleon?

its a milla? cant see lol. if its a milla its fine they are 100% plant eaters that eat dead plant matter. if your cham eats it i dont think they would hurt him. their not poisons. look up if chams can eat them idk anything bout them for food.

I've heard some people say that centis and millis do have venom within their heads. I however have not heard of anyone claiming issues do to ingesting small traces of venom....but then again I'm no scientist/vet
