Resort fee increased, just because.

    Do scorpions infest a building like rats or cockroaches? I thought one might wander in but not that they’re setting up nests inside.

    The Venetian is not in a rural area, so I would think it’s more likely it came in with this guy’s luggage or clothing after they had been out somewhere.

    It doesn’t seem like you could pin it on the hotel’s negligence.

    (Also seeing the picture of that guy and his lawyer does not make me more likely to support him.)

    Edit: I was curious and googled around - lot of pest companies who want to help you with your scorpion problem, but sounds like it’s more often the lawn/pool and the house is an accident:

    "Are Scorpions Attracted To The Inside Of My House?

    Scorpions are not drawn to your home more than any other place in your yard. In most places, it is rare to get scorpions in your home. Scorpions have poor eyesight and use touch as the main guide to finding habitats. They look for small cracks to crawl in. Usually, they are found in the home by accident unless you have another pest problem that is supplying food for the scorpions. If you are purchasing a vacant home there is a higher probability that scorpions are inside the home."

      They are predators so they roam for food. Many times they roam into your house, or maybe into the 1st floor laundry room or shipping/receiving area where fresh laundry is delivered.

      They also are pretty stout climbers and would have no problems getting aboard a basket or stack of fresh towels.

      They also sit around during the day, so they would just ride around on the laundry cart until they get delivered to your room.

      Lastly, they are small and barely noticeable. It’s not like a black ant that obviously sticks out on the floor or on a sheet.

      Lastly they are dumb. They sting first, ask questions later.
