Living and camping all our lives in AZ and now NM we don't worry too much about these critters as they are as commonplace as ants. Heck, last night my teenage daughter tells me there is a scorpion a bit larger than the one in the photo in her bathroom. No worries as she just goes and gets a cup to capture the rascal. A couple minutes later she casually dispenses the scorpion outside and gets back to finishing her homework. We have three teenage daughters and they are pretty adept and capturing centipedes as well, spiders don't stand a chance around here.
