Centipedes wont go away!

Hey yall, just wondering if centipedes do major root damage, and any advice on how to get them out of my soil. My plant is in flower and I can not transplant it. Its in a 5 gallon bucket. Ive tried home made hot pepper juices. I stirred up the topsoil and sprayed the fuck out of it after scooping up the centipedes I saw and killing them! But I keep getting more babies. I stir and scoop wutever I see once a day at least and I know I got a big one out about 2 weeks ago. Ive tried letting the soil go dry, didn't water for a week and a half, because I read they will leave if there is no moisture but heh, Im growing pot here and she got thirsty. Thanks in advance for any info.
