    Put a granulated pesticide outside around the base of your house. better & longer lasting than a spray. Scorpions clean themsleves all the time. They walk across the granules & the pesticide rubs off on their legs & it kills them when they clean themselves.
    I used to live in the Stone Oak area, before all the houses were there & when they started building, it was insane. We put Dursban (original formula now banned) around our house & our neighbor didn't. They had over 100, yes that is correct, scorpions in their house that summer compared to our 2 or 3.

    yah, I used to live off of Wilderness Oak/Hardy Oak area.

    Pest control guy warned me about them since we lived next to a large natural growth drainage easement. Said be careful when walking barefoot around the house.

    Sure enough, killed at least 5 that first year......one accidentally under my slippers while getting milk out of the fridge

    I have lots of them at the ranch. Killed a mother yesterday that had like 20 babies on her back. Got like 21 kills in one stomp. Funny, they are always committing suicide in the swimming pool. I clean dead ones out every time I vacuum.

    I can't stand the sight of those things. And centipedes. Growing up in west Texas they were constantly present, but I've never seen one here in SA. Which is why I almost fainted on Saturday when my son said he had encountered a 5 inch, hairy scorpion in our boat shed!! Must be because of the rain.

    they came from your mom's vag
    I'm certain it's coming from your mom's vag, since she's been over here quite frequently. She just can't get enough of me.

    What type of gaping hole do you have that lets them in?
    dude, those things just find a way just like every other bug. You've never seen spiders in your house before? The house that I mainly grew up in in Longview had the occasional wasp flying around in there. They'd always be flying into and around a window trying to get out and they'd only be in the living room or one of the restrooms, we never could figure out what it was about those 2 rooms and how the they'd get in there

    When I was a kid, I got stung by a scorpion that was hiding in my shoe. To this day, I shake out my shoes before putting them on.
    Nauseatingly painful bite that put me in bed for an entire day as I recall. At first it felt like I'd been hit by a lightning bolt. I'll never forget that intense pain.

    Get yourself a UV light to spot 'em in the dark. Scorpions fluoresce (glow) under UV light.
    Scorpion Black Light


    I remember hearing that the smaller species are the most painful/dangerous. There's some gigantic ones where I live now in Thailand. But they are slow and not dangerous.
    The Chinese teachers at my school like to pop 'em in the microwave and eat 'em as snacks. No kidding!

    Centipedes are the one bug that freaks me out. I had 2 of them in my previous house in the first couple of years we lived there. The area behind us was completely undeveloped. They were at least 6" long and all black and red!

    it's not the smaller species that are dangerous, but the younger scorpions can't control their poison so they send a ton of it into your body when they sting you
