Any advice re scorpions? Our family is going to Mexico for a family vacation, staying in bungalows with thatched roofs in the jungle. The owner advises being cautious about scorpions. I've picked her brain as much as possible, and thought I'd post here as well. So far: use the mosquito netting when sleeping, wear something on your feet especially at night, shake out towels and other items that have been draped over railings, keep your eyes out. She says a scorpion sting is slightly worse than a bee sting and lasts longer. She also says they are nocturnal so be extra cautious after dark. There is a medical facility quite close by if anyone is stung and seems to be having a bad reaction. I'm not overly concerned about it, but looking for any tips/tricks from those who coexist with these rather intimidating creatures. Thanks.
