Millipede

These things have something in the region of 40 to 400 legs, depending on it's age, sometimes more. Which in my book is an awful lot of socks to wash.

I'm always seeing centipedes but never seen one of these Treetop. How long is it?

I suppose it was about 2 to 3 inches in length Thorney. I have never seen one myself before. But I do seem to be getting a lot of insects this year in some sort of form or another. Not sure if that's a good thing or not.
I have looked it up on the internet and I think it's called a 'White-Legged Snake Millipede'.
