 Scorpions venture out at night in search of prey. During hot days they may wander into houses in search of shade and water. They are most often encountered outdoors under loose debris of one sort or another. Gardeners should protect their hands with work gloves.
As arthropods go, scorpions are pretty far down most people's priority list unless you happen to live in an area where they are common. For this reason there are no standard reference books devoted entirely to scorpion biology. However, the following field guides are excellent sources of additional information about North American species.
