My mrs found a young Scorpion in our house the other day!!!

We looked into it and it seems to be a european yellow tailed scorpion.

After some googling it seems they have been breeding successfully in the country for like 100 years!

They are poisonous but not lethal to healthy people.

She's still bricking it now though as we couldn't catch it. Lost it as it is the same colour as our carpet!

Anyone else seen one wild in the UK?
