First night in Arizona desert at Gateway Ranch Rv Park. We are here for about 3 months waiting out winter in Ohio. So the first night I took my black lite out to search for scorpions and I didnt have to go very far except to right out in front of the Rv! As you can see they glow in black lite. This one was about 1-1/2-2" long, I didn't bother picking it up to measure lol. There are 3 basic scorpions in the Sonoran Desert, the Striped Scorpion, the Giant Hairy Scorpion and the most dangerous the Bark Scorpion. Which is this? Again I don't know because I didn't capture it to inspect and it doesn't matter cause I only wanted if I could find one, success in a very short period of time. At the time of writing this which is the 12th, I just went outside and searched around and didn't find anything but maybe it is to early, it is plenty dark at 8:30. They come out at night because it is in search of moist areas and food.
