They basically do what you said in your second post. A team of men came over and spent almost four hours sealing every nook and cranny. It was expensive but at the time, I had a newborn and we were finding 2 scorpions a week in the house. Since then, the number has dropped drastically to only a few a year but I still hate the critters. I am not as paranoid as when the boys were younger and before my son and I got stung. I guess now I know what to do so I am not AS freaked out. But I still hate them and will try everything to stop them from coming to my house. The exterminator said that the ones I am finding might be "stragglers". He says they are able to stay alive for months at a time without food or water. And if they get one cricket or bug, they can last another several months.

My son got stung outside at night. I got stung inside. I was doing crunches on the ground late at night and felt a sharp sting like a needle on my foot, and saw it running away. Hurt like a mother the whole night. Weird pain. More annoying. Worse than my c-section incision pain. Burning, numbing, shooting pain up my leg and down the other. My arms even got slightly numb but not much. Kept me up all night. Numbness took a whole week to entirely go away. Hate the things! They creepy as heck too!
