Did you find one or did you read about it, etc...?



We live too far north for scorpions here in PA.

I saw a dead one on my grandmother's porch. I looked it up and it was a Southern Devil Scorpion, which is native to western NC where I live. Its sting isn't fatal (unless you are allergic to insect stings) so there isn't anything to worry about.

As far as I know, the brown recluse spider is the only insect we have to worry about here. Their bite is really nasty, a kind of flesh-killing venom that dissolves body tissue. It's a good thing they're pretty rare.


Anybody have rattlesnake problems?

Yep, we have Diamond Backs here.

We have the same type near where I live. I've never seen one in my town but if you drive 30 miles, they are all over the place. They actually have a yearly rattlesnake hunt, but I never went, yet. It's on my list of things to do.

That sounds pretty cool, be sure to carry first aid and anti-venom. Those rattlers can kill.

^It's pretty safe. They have ambulances and anti-venom on hand. Also, there is a pretty good sized prize for the largest snake caught within 2 days.



Hmm....I just noticed that I haven't created a thread in a long time.

Well, I'll leave the snakes, scorpions, and spiders here with all of you (watch how they play together). Good night.

^Good night SF.

Yeah, no more going out and doing things. Which actually is what all of us should be doing.......

Every once in a while, something strange like that shows up. After living all my life in NC, it wasn't until last summer that I found out we have scorpions here.

cool thing here is that the scorpions glow in the dark so you want accidentally stumble upon one.

hmm maybe, the only time I've seen them is on t.v. and they glowed a weird green color I know they have them around never seen them myself though.

by the way i've updated my avatar.

^I don't recognise it, but it's cool.

^Looks cool. I have to start watching more new movies. Ever since I sold my home theater system, I haven't been keeping up on the new films. Someday.....
