Millipede Invasion

Residents of Obereichstaett, a Bavarian village, have successfully (for now) stemmed the tide of millipede invaders that had been plaguing their town for hundreds of years. The seasonal millipede onslaught had gotten so bad that some roads were reportedly covered with the creepy beasts. Now, the villagers have constructed a foot-high, metal-lined wall with an overhanging lip, which seems to be foiling the millipede invasion. However, it's hard to see how one foot of metal will be a permanent deterrent to, like, a gajillion feet of arthropod rage. Read all about the ongoing fight here.
