Centipedes

Stink Bugs
Did you know that stink bugs are not originally from the United States? It’s true! They supposedly made their first voyage to eastern Pennsylvania in 1998 via shipping crates.
Millipedes
A fossil of a millipede discovered in Scotland is approximately 428 million years old! It is believed that millipedes were the first animals to breathe air. In order to do this, they made the transition from water to land.
