I acquired a very young Tailless Whip Scorpion during the bug fair. I heard my biggest mortality concern is during molting. Any suggestions from preventing an untimely death?

Hello,
You need to keep the humidity at leat 70% and make sure there are plenty of vertical places for it to molt and no fruit flies or pinhead crickets that might knock her down while molting.
good luck.

But not so wet that its container gets moldy, or it could get fungal infections...
