Poor Desmond got stung by a scorpion at work today 😢

What the hell, man?! Those things are supposed to be burrowed away for the winter! Thankfully, he’s not allergic, but damn… I don’t dislike scorpions, but I do if they’re hurting those I love. 😡

I don't live where we have scorpions but when I was stationed in Lybia we had scorpions as big as a mans hand. They were black, brown and white. The white ones could really make you sick and were very painful.

@Baremine Black and brown ones aren't the really venomous scorpions, the red and yellow ones are, don't think I ever heard of a white one.

@NativePortlander1970 they weren't a pure white maybe a pale yellow. That was 1969. Not getting any younger.
