I have been bit . . .
by a scorpion, and it is no fun. It was ontop of the sheets when I pulled my leg out because it was a hot night. Like a wasp sting, but it keeps stinging for 8-10 more hours and a 3-5 inch area around the bite goes numb and tingly for the next 24 hours.
I kill about 3-4 a year that get in the house somehow. Around a dozen tarantulas live in my yard, too, but I like them - It is fun to toss a junebug near their hole ( at night of course ) and watch them pounce on it.
I have only seen 2 gila monsters in the 14 years I have lived here, tho. Pretty stout little lizards, and their saliva is incredible toxic.
