centruroides vittatus. Not dangerous, but does have a fairly painful sting. They're excellent roach killers and are better alive than dead, just toss it outside

Yes venomous. I agree with the C vittatus identification.

Live in Bossier parish...found in home...is it poisonous?
Scorpions are not poisonous. They are venomous. The one you found is not lethal to humans except for individuals with an allergy. In your case, take it somewhere and Let It Go so it can do its thing.
