Hey @Mojo Ram! You live in Arizona right!? Well I just got a Facebook message from My Niece, who lives in Northern Arizona, that she has had to Kill 16 Scorpions in he yard in the last 3 Days! Is that common this time of year!?!

I told her I hate anything that Crawls and Bites! I had a nasty experience with a 12 inch Centapede in Viet Nam!

Scorpions suck.

I wonder if it has to do with a lot of the seismic activity?

Yeah those little fuckers love to move indoors when the temps rise. Its always a good idea to scan your house and property often with a blacklight in the summer.

Hope you are keeping cool, @Mojo Ram
Death heat has yet to arrive in Texas but it's getting there

I had a scorpion crawl into my pillowcase and I laid my head down on it and STINGGGGG

honestly though, the scorpions we get here are super small and are harmless really (unless they crawl in your pillow that is)

Gotta agree with you, Dave. I hate those buggers. I've only seen one in my lifetime (some exist in Florida in the rural areas). It scared the shit out of me. It was trying to hide in my bed.

I'm moving to the Texas desert in a couple months. I'm hoping like hell that scorpions getting into my apartment won't be an issue.

Growing up in Florida, I can assure you that it's not fun at times. The most frightening experience I had was going under a bridge in a boat (and of course, you have to go slow because it's a no wake zone), looking up, and realized that there are a shitload of cottonmouths in the rafters above me (they were well above me, but those fuckers are known for dropping into boats).

Higher than normal rainfall over the past year, more bugs, more dinner for scorpions.

Shit, I wish it was nature I had to worry about. Its other people you gotta watch out for here in CA.

Ouch....but imagine living in the Mid West where those storms are normal for those folks. Hope you get all that stuff fixed quickly and hope there was not too much damage to your house.
 
Ticks vs Scorpions:thinking:

I'll take on the Scorpions over dealing with these ticks!

These South Eastern Ticks can deliver Rocky Mountain Spotted Tick Fever blood diseases (RMFS) may be more rampant & can damage you & even kill you much more slowly through major organ failures if not addressed fast..
