Oddly int he 2 yrs Ive been in my house here in the East Valley haven't seen any scorpions in the Neighborhood.. Could be because the subdivision backs up to the 202 which isn't bad noisewise with the huge sound walls they have up and I'm far enough away from them.. Bigger concern is actually rattlers around here although not as bad as Scottsdale when I lived there back in 2013/2014.. but yes its true people have been known to put mason jars around their feet of the bed to keep scorpions from climbing into their bed.. My wifes been here 10yrs in AZ and only had one hit from a scorpion..
As for the heat issue its weird the house absorbs heat int he daytime and loses it at night.. Dunno if part of it is due to the fact its 20yrs old..I think its just shitty insulation for the most part.. Its so bad that at times it can be hotter downstairs then upstairs in the summertime which is why I Have to keep the AC set at 74 because it can get u p to 80 downstairs and that's about as warm as I prefer int he house..

I lived in AZ for a bit and once when getting out of bed in the middle of the night to hit the john, I picked up something in the dark that tickled my foot. Thinking it was a small piece of paper, I immediately crushed it in my hand without much of a thought, only to realize as I threw it away that it was a scorpion. Dead, but I guess it wasn't fast enough to sting me before I unleased the grip of death on it.
P.S. The house had cinder block construction with lots of cracks in the mortar, so we used to find scorpions inside on a regular basis. After we used that glass powder around the base of the house, we never saw another scorpion inside again.
Here's the follow up to that-

Fortunately for Vegas, I-15 is still open in a limited capacity.
Also, those Facebook comments are fucking ridiculous. Clearly Jerry Brown and the Democrats are responsible for the soil composition of the desert.

I used to work at UCLA, and predictably every year right around New Years you would suddenly large numbers of pasty white obese fans of whatever Big 10 school made it that particular year walking around campus. And they were always wearing shorts and tshirts for their particular school, no matter how cold it was.
