UVB or any UV light for centipedes?

Hey everyone,

So I looked this up and still haven’t found a true answer but do centipedes such as gigantea species or the white legs need UVB light, cause I would assume no but I just want to double check and see ? Because I want to have plants in there but I don’t want to harm it either.

They don’t need UV light and I highly doubt it would benefit them, especially since they are often buried in the substrate. I don’t think it would harm them if you provided it but it could result in a calcium overdose, I’m not sure.
