The warmer weather tends to lure scorpions out of their hiding, so be especially vigilant when the cooler weather dissipates and the climate really heats up. You will recognize the bark scorpion by its slender, streamlined appearance that is very light beige or almost opaque in color. Symptoms of a scorpion bite include sharp pain at the site, discoloration, swelling that spreads, drooling, nausea, restlessness, incontinence and seizures, warns the City of Phoenix. Treat stings right away with ice and keep the airway clear. Get to a hospital immediately, where you can get an anti-venom to combat symptoms.
Scorpions — bark scorpions in particular — are excellent climbers, so look for them on cement basement walls, ceilings and even your shower curtains. You may want to install a scorpion shield to prevent those critters from falling into your baby’s crib. Peel back the layers of your bed and inspect for scorpions before you get into bed at night. Look inside shoes and clothing before putting them on. Remember, they like damp dark places. Keep furniture away from the walls and do not leave damp beach towels laying around in the bathroom or pool area.
