How do wild scorpions spend the winter

Wild scorpions completely stop growing and develop in winter, and are in a crouching state, so they are called dormant period or dormant period. As the temperature continues to drop, the activity of scorpions gradually decreases. In late autumn and early winter, they stop looking for good ones and hibernate, mostly lurking in nests 30-80 cm deep from the ground.

Scorpions belong to animals that lie down during the day and come out at night. I like the tide, I am afraid of doing things, I like the stimulation of dark and bright light, I like living in groups, I like being quiet and restless, and I have the habit of knowing the nest and the group. Most scorpions live together in fixed nests.

Generally, large groups of scorpion nests are mostly hermaphroditic, large and small, live in harmony and rarely kill each other. But if they are not the same scorpion, they often kill each other after meeting.

Extended data:

The growth and reproduction of scorpions are also closely related to the humidity of the external environment. If it doesn't rain for a long time, wild scorpions in nature will go underground to hide in a wet place about 1 meter.

When there is water on the ground in rainy weather, they will climb to high places to escape, so when raising scorpions, we should pay great attention to the humidity of feed and the humidity of breeding grounds and nests.

Scorpion's activity place should be wet, while the nest should be slightly dry, which is beneficial to the growth, development and reproduction of scorpions. If the nest is too wet, it is easy to be invaded by microorganisms, and it is difficult for scorpions to shed their skin.
