 :-\  sorry sir, I hang my head in shame.  

I fully recognise the seriousness of the thread - only too well as we live in uzumlu amongst the snakes and scorpions, and I am saddened to hear that someone died recently, that is truely awful.

However a little light hearted banter never harms this forum and in fact makes it so enjoyable for the majority of us.  However apologise if you feel it inappropriate.

Nonsense Pooks. Thanks to this topic (and the contributors) the information on antidotes for scorpion bites is now in the public domain and will possibly help people should they be unfortunate enough to get bitten. If people then lighten the mood in the thread, the information on antidotes for scorpion bites doesn't disappear, it is still here.

If you need to find the information in a hurry, typing "scorpion bites" into the search engine will bring it up instantly.

Scientific/Naturalists research seems to point to the size of the beasties pincers/claws as a guide as to the the toxicity of the scorpions venom; large pincers = less toxic, small pincers = more toxic.
 Obviously, (before some smart arse picks me up on it,)if you got stung, you may not notice, or have the time, to examine the size of the little varmints 'nasty bits' I'm, just trying to be helpful & informative.  ;):D

You are quite right Pookie in saying a little bit (I think I have "a litle bit" on the brain tonight!) of light hearted banter does good for the forum it is part of what I love abouit it, and like Scunner saus you can still find the answer you need by searching, I personally would not have a clue about scorpion bites or rather I should say the seriousness of them if I had not read about it on here so I for one have been educated on scorpion bites and what to do about it if I was ever unlucky enough toi be bitten by one!
