It probably would but boric acid is safer.

Are you seeing centipedes in your house?
Bleach can do so much damage to almost everything so I would hesitate to consider using it for anything like this - even if it worked.
Centipedes are not as dangerous as many people think but that does not mean we want them in our houses. Please read some articles about centipedes so you will know what steps to take to remove them and also to keep them from returning.

The easiest (and maybe safest) way to kill centipedes (and other bugs) is with boric acid (20 Mule Team Boric) or Diatomaceous Earth (DE) (food grade). These are safe for humans and pets - Just sprinkle it anyplace you have seen your bugs and they will soon be dead.
Here is an interesting site that has a lot of useful information.

Here is a site with information about Diatomaceous Earth (food grade) - Just in case you are not familiar with this product. This can be bought at any farm supply store or on-line at eBay or Amazon (food grade only).
