Buy some concentrate Demon WP. Should be available at home centers or internet.

Also, try not to respond back in 4 minutes of original post asking why there hasn't been any answers yet. Try not also to use all CAPS. It implies you are yelling. Luckily this forums removes most of it.

Centipedes like damp environments in which to live. Address your moisture issues and seal all entry points. Centipedes also migrate in spring, especially during times of heavy rain, as well as drought. They can migrate in large numbers.

Keeping perimeter of home treated with residual insecticide is effective. Spray arounds shrubs and trees where centipedes nest. Keep lawn free of debris. Treat along baseboards indoors with residual insecticide. Sticky traps can also be effective. Without treatment, population can grow to large numbers.

I usually had to power spray twice to get the population down

Rake back mulch and treat the base of the structure and out into the mulch areas
Tempo and Demon or good products for this
I used Demand for the most part
