Whip Scorpions

[Frostbyte]

I just purchased 2 whip scorpions. 1 adult and one juvie . The Juvie got loose and is roaming my house somewhere. OK here come the questions #1 is there any sure fire way to get the juvie back? #2 is there any threat ? and #3 can you handle tailess whip scorpions ( aka cave spider s) >?

Although there is no danger to YOU in handling them, I've found that they stress easily and will actually drop legs if stressed too much. I generally avoid touching them if I can help it for this reason. If I have to move them, I coax them onto a piece of cork bark.
