Are either centipedes or spiders insects? I thought insects only had 6 legs
They are arthropods, just like lobsters and insects, but no, they are not insects. Spiders are arachnids.
Centepides actually only have 6 legs. You can see the six real legs if you look closely at a picture. The other "legs" work like legs, but are not actually legs.
