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 ).
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

Since these systems do not work by exchanging ions, like traditional water softeners do, one benefit claimed for the user is the elimination of the need to add salt to the system.

Insecticidal soap is used to control many plant insect pests. Soap has been used for more than 200 years as an insect control.
