I opened the door to a shed and found this guy sitting in the middle of the floor. It's been a long time since I've seen one this big in the wild. My coworker said it was nice enough to be out in the open and not hiding somewhere I had to put my hands.
It's been my experience that where there's one scorpion, there's more
They glow under blacklight so it's easy to check.
Is that all breeds or just some?
A quick search says it's an almost universal trait among species.
I used to shine them on the palm trees in my yard in Phoenix and the whole thing would glow with scorpions. It was so cool to see.
Cool is not the word I would use in that situation
That's wild.
The almost makes it the fun part. Is there scorpions in there? *Shines light We should be good!
(Narrator: They were not good)
Not just species, the entire clave.
Oh ya there's more around for sure, this is in a pretty remote area. Rattlesnakes get in there occasionally and I'm really lucky I haven't encountered that. At least in that building.
