Scorpions are relatives to Spiders. Most Scorpions found in homes are not poisonous, but they will sting but no more than a bee sting. They roam at night and rest during the day. Their habitat is dark places like attics, exterior walls, weep holes, closets, and even moist places like rocks, patios, landscape timbers and foundations.
A Scorpions diet of choice is small spiders and soft bodied insects even other species of Scorpions. They carry their young on their backs till they mature.
