What do scorpions eat, and what animals eat them?
Scorpions are omnivores, which means that they eat both plants and animals. They have a varied diet that includes insects, spiders, other small animals, and sometimes even fruits and vegetables. Because its natural tendency as a predator is to hunt food, they enter your home and business searching for a meal and shelter. Their broad-range diet allows them to live in variable habitats, including deserts, grasslands, and urban areas.

In this regard, scorpions may have a distinct disadvantage by glowing in the dark. Lizards, snakes, rodents, frogs, and toads all eat scorpions.
