    read up on them first.

    Oh I have, GF really appreciates the factoids about bark scorpions that I've learned. Nests can harbor 20/30 and females and can brood 10/20 young three to four times a year in favorable conditions. ASU states insecticides are useless against them, and recommends a cedar oil spray around entry points...but they only need 1/16 of an inch gap to enter.

    I only found two in the house last summer, and that's two too many for me.
