“Each scorpion produces about 2 milligrams of venom daily, which is milked using a pair of tweezers and tongs. A liter is worth $10 million”. That’s a helluva job.

I’ll bet there are perfumes that beat this out....easily.

My Lhasa Apso dog (has long hair) would bring small scorpions inside home after pee visit outside, in St Augustine. She had too many hair for the scorpion to sting her. I would be chasing the scorpion inside house trying to stomp it with my shoe.

All over the desert in AZ. Check your footwear every morning.
Yea, I lived out there for a few years in a younger life.

And there’s YT videos about it!
And, of course, probably fake venom with all the publicity.

You know, I do wish I could come back for more than a week or two every year, right? I miss so much about my home state, but yet, everyone needs to get their act together for me to do that. I could be inland, like I was growing up, but please get rid of the alligators (and scorpions) so that I can be comfortable on a river or a lake again.
I can put up with heat, humidity, hurricanes, roaches (they’re not Palmetto bugs..they’re roaches), and even (damn) Yankees, but please, for the love of God, please let me shoot an alligator on my property without the need of calling a game warden. Then I’ll be happy to move back. ❤️

You wouldn’t have to do anything, really. Just hire a bunch of illegals to run it!.......................

I was born in Arizona. My folks used to put newspaper over my crib because scorpions would drop off the ceiling.

"The traditional method for extracting a scorpion’s venom is simply manual milking. This involves gently stimulating the scorpion to induce venom release, collecting it directly with specialized tools."
Reminds me of the picture of the grizzly bear artificial insemination team. But they do this for real.

I lived in Kingman Arizona when I was a kid. The place was crawling with scorpions. Big ones. Also there were rattlesnakes galore. If I had known the scorpion venom was that valuable, I would have changed my career. By the way, I hate scorpions.
