We get them her also, long red-yellow buggers and we have pest control
spray for them, as well as the even more dangerous bark scorpions.

Either one will on occasion turn up indoors, but almost always in their
writhing death throes.

It pays to be regular with spray applications and we keep a small
sprayer of commercial grade insecticide to renew thresholds and window
frames following the monsoon rains.
