I jumped out of bed at about 1:45am because I felt a burning/stinging sensation on my arm, turns out there was a scorpion under the covers with my gf and me. SOB bit be twice on the arm :flaming:, and it stung/burned like a MF! I got this funny taste in my mouth and my lips started tingling, and the whole time my arm felt like there was napalm burning under it. I grabbed a flip flop and smashed the chit out of the sob. I have been bit twice before but it never felt like these bites. Has anyone else been bit by one of these? I think this is the same species that bit me. http://insects.tamu.edu/fieldguide/cimg364.html Or this one, it may be the same species http://www.flickr.com/photos/ladylong/82430026/

Yup. They don't feel good.

When I was young a tornado came across our property and killed a ton of trees. After that, we seemed to get a lot of scorpions in the house. A few years later after most of the trees rotted, the scorpions seemed to disappear.

Yep, I was stung by a scorpion when I was around 11 or 12. Same kind of set up. Asleep in bed, felt a burning sensation in my hand that went all the way up my arm. Jumped up, turned on the light and found a scorpion had snuggled up under my pillow. Hurt like the dickens, no hospital visit. I was a tough little trooper...:cool:. My hand swelled up pretty good but was better after a day or so. I have a, "bit by a snake" story too, but don't want this to turn into a :ron:. I'll wait for a thread about snake bites.

WoW, that brings back memories, one house in Carrollton was plagued with little brown stinging scorpions. Wife got stung back in the 80's just like you, it was under the pillow. She didn't go to the doc or anything. I used to hunt them down and cut off their stinger with scissors. It was the only way they woul die. I caught a few and left them in a sealed glass jar, 9 months later the exterminator asked if he could have the live scorpions in the jar in the garage....
