Miami Scorpion Control and Removal

There is an Old Persian saying: "Even the hand of compassion is
stung when it strokes a scorpion". This is indicative of the venomous
reputation that the scorpion has. Most of us think of scorpions as
desert creatures. Did you know that in Miami, Florida there are
scorpions? Scorpion removal should be a priority if you think your
house is home to some of these creatures.

Most Floridians are not aware of this, but the Florida Bark Scorpion
is native to Florida, Mexico and Central America. It is also known as
the Slender Brown Scorpion and the Brown Bark Scorpion. Although
typically not as poisonous as some of its relatives, it is poisonous
nonetheless. Bites from these creatures are very painful. Fortunately,
its bite is rarely fatal, but it can cause the venom equivalent of 5 bee
stings. Medical experts do not consider the Florida Bark Scorpion
medically significant. If one gets bitten by a scorpion, seek
immediate emergency medical attention. This is especially true if
one is allergic to spider bites and other insect venoms.

One reason most people aren't aware of scorpions in Florida is that,
like most other scorpions, our Florida scorpions are nocturnal.
During the day they hide under the bark of trees or under stones and
other areas that can produce an environment of darkness.

If one discovers a scorpion on their property, they should engage a
scorpion removal service. The more quickly the scorpion is removed,
the quicker the risk (and liability) is eliminated.

In spite of all the dangers associated with scorpions, hobbyists
collect and raise them. The Florida Bark Scorpion is considered a
good specimen because of its ease of care and lack of medical
significance. As a result, another potential source of infestation may
come from hobbyists who no longer want to keep their pet and who
"dump" their pet in areas in or near population centers.
