I saw this northern scorpion, Paruroctonus boreus, in my laundry room a couple of days ago. I was barefoot and almost stepped on it. Fortunately, the sting of this species is not as bad as some of those residing in other parts of the world. A sting from a northern scorpion produces effects similar to a bee sting.
It looks kind of big and scary in this picture, right? In reality, it was only an inch long. I scooped it up with a paper towel and put it outside.
