Where does a water scorpion live?

Answer 1

I work at a truckstop in Mn and we are about 2.5 miles from water and we have these things hanging and flying yes flying around at night by the gas pumps and diesel pumps. So while they are called water scorpions there is no water near the truckstop but a plethora of these nasty little creatures, especially by our box crusher. The only real difference I have noticed between these and pics from wikipedea is they lack the breathing tube on their backside, and they yes they do fly. Otherwise they are one and the same ugly creepy bugs. I have pic posted on FB of one I trapped in a container to ask others what it was. My darling 13 y/o genius knew right away and now here I am answering your question. But to answer it for real, it is said they live in shallow water near shorelines and feed on fairy shrimp and tadpoles.

Answer 2

Scorpions perform a mating dance by clasping each others pincers and dance around. The male deposits aspermatophyte, a small container of sperm, onto the ground then directs the female over to it so she can pick it up. The young develop in eggs inside the female, Then after thirty five days to one year ,20-50 young hatches inside the female and emerge alive and crawl onto the mothers back. The mother protects them until they have molted (shed their exoskeletons) for the first time. scorpions take from two to three years to reach sexual maturity and live for three to fifteen years.
