Last night a scorpion crawled and sat just above my ankle and thank goodness, I don’t have neuropathy because when they crawl, the sensation is very, very, very light to the touch, not like any other insect that I have felt crawl on me. I felt the sensation and slowly raised my leg then hit my heel on the floor and knocked it off and that demon was executed with a OTF knife right through the center of its demonic body. And actually, this was the second time in a month this has happened to me  Sooo, time to bust out the Talstar-P and wipe this vermin out

I am starting to see a few of those nasties. I have sugar sand in the yard. From what I have seen, scorpions like the sand. Time to break out my black light flashlight and go scorpion hunting.

I got hit by one a few weeks ago when I stuck my finger inside a hollow log. Immediate pain that lasted about six hours, then numb for another day. Much worse than a red wasp sting.

I’ve spent many nights out in the desert where those little guys would try to come cuddle up for the night.
They’re fairly harmless, no worse than a honey bee.
That said they are ugly/nasty looking creatures that should be killed off from around the house.

They’re docile and their stings hurt less than a bee, are they more harmful? I worked for beekeeper for a year during high school and would get stung regularly. I have been swarmed by africanized killer bees twice while out shredding. All of those hundreds of bee stings did not hurt as bad as one scorpion sting.

I have been stung by them a lot and it seems that red ants pain lasts longer! At least on me it does!
