They are millipedes and mainly consume dead vegetation rather than live
plants but they are vegetarian. The bigger faster orange ones centipedes
are carnivorous and are actually beneficial since they eat pest insects.

Apart from new seedlings they are not a threat to established plants and
mainly tidy things up by consuming dead leaves.
