corpions are the one type of bug that should be taken seriously. Unlike roach and ant infestations that are simply disgusting and annoying, scorpions are dangerous. In the valley of Las Vegas there are two types of scorpions and both are poisonous.

The first type is the common local variety which is yellow and brown. It is usually two to four inches in length. The other type is a Bark scorpion which is green and usually one to two inches in size. The Bark scorpion is accidently imported with palm trees from Arizona during housing booms.

If you see either of these scorpions in your home you should seek professional pest control that specializes in scorpions. If you are bit by a common local variety or Bark scorpion then you should seek immediate medical attention.

In addition to scorpions’ tails that are equipped with poisonous stingers, they also have powerful biting mouths and claws which can pinch. Putting your foot into a show with a scorpion inside of it or going to bed with a scorpion under the covers is not something you want to ever go through.
