Meet the Pseudoscorpion (Using beneficiaries on SteemPeak)

in wtf •  6 years ago  (edited)

Have you ever seen one of these? It's apparently a Pseudoscorpion.

It was in the bathroom on my baking soda container.

I screamed a little, won't lie.

Got @eddiebowes to come kill it, and of course he had to go grab my camera for a photo op first, which is why he is my 50% beneficiary on this post (@steempeak will receive 10% as well).

Are you positively cringing?

Apparently Pseudoscorpions aren't harmful in any way, they eat mites and are an arachnid.

I feel a little sad that it's dead. Though I have no clue where I would have relocated it to. I've only just become comfortable with spiders being in the house...this is just too next level. Damn thing looks like a cross between a tick and a scorpion!

So #SteemFam...you ever seen one? Did you even know this creature existed? Would you have killed it? Moved it to a dark corner? Put it outside in the snow? Will I have 33 years bad luck for making my son kill a Pseudoscorpion?

I confess I hate tiny critters like that. I usually squash them. :-P
They have a whole world outside. They should stay there and stop invading my house. 😤

By the way, you wrote "psuedo" pretty much everywhere. Sounds like you had a dyslexia attack! 😂😂😂

Thank you very much for the correction, an awful word and bug!

I don't really like them because of how much scorpion-like they look. I won't be comfortable with any moving around me because it takes me back to many years ago when I was stung by a real scorpion, it was horrible.... Hahaha, I was just 12 but the memories never go away.

Wow, I am glad that you survived Edith, that is so scary!

Awe, what happened to shilling the proboards trash, Lyndsay? Did you realize @fulltimegeek is nothing but a phony piece of shit?

Such a quitter, you're fucking pathetic.

It was so scary Lyndsey, it really was painful too. 😀

That thing looks freaky! I'm not sure what I'd do if I saw one in my house. Probably same as you. 🙈🤣
get it away from here! ick!

Haha yikes! Anything that eats the stuff that eats me is good in my books. Kinda creepy looking though with those claws.

Not gonna lie, I probably would have screamed and possibly peed my pants. You're NORTH of me, dammit, we aren't supposed to have scary bugs, it's why we live in the North!

I think I'm having an existential crisis.

LOL that was a funny comment to wake up to Bwa hahhaaa!!! They are apparently harmless...and eat mites...I should have relocated that dude to the chicken coop now that I think of it! Just breathe easy knowing he's deep in a septic tank right now hahaa!

yuk
