Mainly beetles. Beetles are one of the most common insects in the desert. The scorpion has the pincers, the telson and the venom to kill a beetle. It mainly waits for the beetle to come close, and then, it catches the beetle, but it has to wait for it to stop struggling, then, it can paralyze the beetle and start eating it. It also eats small Spiders, other scorpions and on occasions, jerboas.
