And where are they finding holes to get into the house...I presume its at the base of the waterproof barrier that is under the vinyl siding.
final note: I had home inspectors and other experts say there is no treatment for them and they fit in the tiniest of holes. They tend to be seasonal in new construction and mainly crawling around the driveway and backyard. But few get inside actually. I'll contact Massey or another company for more treatment options because I've tried everything except Diatomaceous earth so far to keep them away from the house.

Don’t know about millipedes but we had a problem with worm’s getting into our patio. I used cheap table salt and sprinkled it around the foundation and no more worms. Might be worth trying, it’s cheap and easy to do.
