Symptoms usually result within a few hours. If symptoms such as difficulty breathing or rapid, severe swelling occur, seek medical attention immediately. All scorpions in Kansas can produce a painful sting, but serious life threatening symptoms are rare. First aid is similar to that given for a wasp sting. At times the pasture outside of the central compound may contain cattle.
Cattle are most times docile animals.
Please do not provoke them. Because of the cattle there may be a single-strand electric fence wire surrounding some areaa. Please be careful not to touch this wire. If contact is made when the fence is energized, a mild shock is likely. All electric fences have gates with an insulated opener that should be used to access the fenced area.
