While they may have the word Arizona in their name, they can be found anywhere in America, especially in the Las Vegas Desert. Although they cannot climb smooth surfaces or glass, the scorpions can climb any rough horizontal façade. In cold winter months, they will group together in packs as large as 30. When it is warmer outside, they are more solitary – just like other insects and small prey.

Currently, the Bark Scorpion is the most common one you will find in America. In fact, here in Vegas, it's not uncommon to find them in your backyard.

When scorpions do attack a human or pet, their venom will generally cause numbness, severe pain, muscle twitching, shortness of breath, convulsions and foaming inside the mouth.

No, scorpions do not lay eggs. Instead, the female scorpion waits until the eggs hatch inside her body – which is when the baby scorpions emerge from their mother.

Yes, it is possible to die from bark scorpion venom from a sting, but it is a rare case scenario.

It is not uncommon for a while the Arizona bark scorpion to live for five years or longer. This is especially true if they can find an irrigated lawns to live next to.
