[Harm and Poison]
Generally, scorpions are feared by humans as being extremely poisonous, and there are expressions such as "hate them like snakes and scorpions (pronounced dakatsu, but daketsu is correct)," but there are only a few species of scorpions in the world whose venom is strong enough to be fatal. The most venomous is found in Buthus ustralis , which lives in the deserts of Africa, and the venom of Centruroides exilicauda in Mexico and B. occitanus in southern Europe and northwestern Africa can also be fatal. Scorpions often invade human homes, often hiding in gaps in cupboards, kitchens, and toilets, as well as in shoes, clothes, and bags, so caution is required in areas where highly poisonous scorpions live.
