All scorpions are NOT highly venomous. All scorpions do have venom however, In the United States, there is only one scorpion that is considered dangerous to humans. This would be the Bark Scorpion. It is found hiding under the loose bark of trees and in the leaf litter surrounding the trees. It can be further identified upon close examination by a small tooth-like projection at the "sting" or telson of the tail. It appears as a small hook and opposes the actual sting. They are also one of the few scorpions in the US that can climb. It is dangerously venomous to the very young, the infirm and the very old. If you are allergic to bees and wasps then there is a high likelyhood that you are also allergic to scorpions.
