Field Notes

Description:

Very small scorpion, solid brown

Habitat:

In my house! (In the finished basement, where I find them periodically.)

Notes:

These little guys aren't all that dangerous, really. They do sting, but they prefer to run away or hide. I like having them around, bc it sounds cool to say I've found a scorpion in my house :)
