size: 6-7cm long (6th instar)
i was stung while handling the scorpion, i was trying to remove a HUGE mite which was on its prosoma, and i obviously restrained the scorp to much, so he got me on the thumb, i felt the pain as the sting entered, then about a second later it injected the venom, jesus it hurts, about 10-15 times more than a wasp, pain lasted about 10 minutes, and my thumb swelled up to about x3 for 3-4 hours, red colour
