Solifugae is an order of arachnids known variously as solifuges, sun spiders, camel spiders, and wind scorpions. The order includes more than 1,000 described species in about 147 genera . Despite the common names, they are neither true scorpions (order Scorpiones) nor true spiders (order Araneae ).
Laundry detergent pods (also called "packs" or "liquitabs") are water-soluble pouches containing highly concentrated laundry detergent, softener and other laundry products. They first became popular in February 2012 when they were introduced by Procter & Gamble as Tide Pods (Ariel Pods in Europe). [1]
As of January 2023, the World Solifugae Catalog accepts the following ten genera: Cordobulgida Mello-Leitão, 1938 Curanahuel Botero-Trujillo, 2019 Gaucha Mello-Leitão, 1924 Gauchella Mello-Leitão, 1937 Metacleobis Roewer, 1934 Mummucia Simon, 1879 Mummucina Roewer, 1934 Mummucipes Roewer, 1934 Uspallata Mello-Leitão, 1938
Solpugidae is a family of solifuges or sun spiders. Solpugidae have groups of papillae on their pedipalps or sensory organs. The papillae come out of sockets that are characterized with the function of mechanoreceptor, and contact chemoreceptors, which allows them to respond to stimuli such as touch and sound.

Eremobates is a genus of arachnids of the order Solifugae. [1] About 2 inches long, these fast-moving arachnids have the largest jaw size to body ratio of any animal. [citation needed] They are not venomous, but have a remarkably powerful bite. Often hunting at night, they have poor eyesight and navigate mostly by use of a pair of pedipalps.
It is also used as a precipitating water softener, which combines with hard water minerals (calcium- and magnesium-based minerals) to form an insoluble precipitate, removing these hardness minerals from the water. [5] It is the carbonate moiety which forms the precipitate, the bicarbonate being included to moderate the material's alkalinity.
