I am heading to Kissimmee, Florida (near Orlando) in a couple weeks and was wondering if anyone knows of a good place to go out at night for a couple hours and hunt for some scorpions with my son. Any help is appreciated...

Have you invested in a black light yet? Other than that, I've never been to Florida :)

As you probably know, Centruroides hentzi and C. gracilis are the first scorpions that live there that come to my mind. Have fun!;)

pull the bark off of dead pine trees, you will almost definitely find one on the pieces that you pull off. Be careful though, their sting is not pleasant.
