Thank you all for your comments.

Sharon ... I find scorpions by going out to the desert and searching for them with a portable blacklight. Desert Hairy scorpions will "light up" from 50 feet away on a moonless night. I normally handle the scorpions with special tweezers that are about a foot long.
