This past weekend, someone told me that they had a Scorpion on their table when they sat down at a local restaurant. :eek:
Is that restaurant on the favorite restaurant thread? :eek:
I saw on the news a little girl who plays with scorpions in India and they don't sting her.

We have a lot of scorpions at our complex. They are usually found underneath the outdoor carpeting, around the AC units outside, and around the palm fronds which fall to the ground.

I have them around my house also. I used to find them inside my house alot. I haven't seen any in awhile though. I can handle snakes better than I can scorpians, they scare the &*(^ out of me!!!

Yes to both pigmy's and scorpions. Have had several scorpions in my house. Have seen a pigmy walking Gizmo last year. Haven't seen any this year yet but just warming up. I know that even on populated neighborhood streets and pools, we should be on the lookout for both at all times because the disruption of any wooded area will bring them out. :eek:

On the upside, I had an invasion of praying mantis last fall on my decks. :D
