Special glass or plastic feeding boxes 4-5 times larger than scorpions should be ventilated. The bottom is covered with coconut soil, wood blocks, dodging objects or reptiles are placed in the box to avoid caves, a small basin that is not easy for scorpions to climb into, and a thermometer. Keep the temperature in the feeding box about 26 ℃ and the air humidity around 60-70%. Spray water regularly and pay attention to heat preservation in winter. Mainly feed bread worms, crickets, red cherry cockroaches and so on, once a week. Different kinds of scorpions need different cushion materials and different temperature and humidity.
