Does an Emperor Scorpion's poison have any effect on humans?
I was wondering maybe the poison can do something? My mom was getting angry because it's very big and it might sting us and kill us all.

The venom of a scorpion is what causes widespread fear and fascination for scorpions. The prospect of such a tiny creature having such potent venom is both alluring and repulsive. Myth, legends, folklore, Hollywood and adoring parents tends to sensualise and exaggerate the effect of scorpion's venom. With that being said, an emp will pinch before it stings you. I have an emp that boxes me with its tail. Never has stung.
If you do get stung, you could expect localized pain and swelling. Out or over 2000 scorpion species, only 25 can really do any damage. The Emperor is NOT one of them.
