Speaking for us living in Alabama, cockroaches, fire ants, and scorpions are the reason most of us happily pay for pest control services.

I know that it's probably a sign of impending ecological doom, but where I live used to have scorpions coming in all the time. I don't think I've even seen evidence of them outside for close to a decade. I guess I can appreciate the silver lining of the giant mushroom cloud.
