It is an animal and as far as I know it is considered a harmful animal. But my actual experience with this creature is different. It is a natural environment animal and such animals are mostly found inside the soil or inside different types of earthen houses. The name of this animal is Lithobius forficatus animal. This I saw and observed and saw that the creature was slender and very tall. Moreover, this animal has more arms on the right and left sides of its body, which it uses while moving. Although it is a harmless animal, I took some pictures of it to share with all my friends.

I soaked one of my shirts in the bucket last night in my bathroom with soap and when I started to wash the shirt I suddenly found this creature on the shirt. At this point I stopped washing the shirt and took some pictures of this animal to share with friends. As it was night, I took few pictures using my mobile flashlight and electricity light and sharing the pictures with hive community friends. I hope all my friends will like these pictures of mine.
