No matter how many times we call the exterminator out here scorpions are just a fact of life here. I step cautiousKY down the hallway in the dark..... Exactly! We see them in the house, no matter how many times we spray, have Orkin come out, etc. Our youngest is scared of anything that crawls. I tell her to suck it up, or move. AHAHHAHA

I've been stung more times than I can count, so much so that I have built up kinda of an immunity/tolerance to the venom. My baby sister use to catch them and put them in our shoes. Glue boards are your friend when it comes to controlling them.

I’ll take a scorpion over a wasp any day, To get rid of them, pick up demon wp at tsc. Double up a one gallon sprayer spray all around outside of house, weep holes, brush etc. Do not spray inside.
You can thank me later.

When I was about 10 I got into a sleeping bag with a scorpion. It stung me 2 or 3 times on the stomach. I thought a pen or something was sticking me, hurt like a mofo.

Check your bath towels before drying off. Got it once on the leg and once on the chest, there was no third time. this happened to my brother. Got him right on the tip........ he went running through the house holding himself buck naked screaming like a banshee. I told everyone in school the next day. His nickname was scorp d!ck till he graduated.

A friend gave me a big cabin tent that we used at a deer lease. I woke up one night and had one just inches from my face. I have never been stung by one. We pulled up old cedar stumps to burn and there was always at least 3 or 4.
In 24 years I have only seen one in Rockwall County but we have plenty of black widows.

I might have taken the scorpion over the hundreds of fire ants in my underwear. I got up when morning quick shower and grabbed a pair of underwear off the floor next to the bed. Jumped in the truck and off to work. I made it from Roanoke to Southlake before I had to pull over. Jumped out of my truck and stripped down on the shoulder of 114. Good thing it was still dark.
