Encountered chiefly in rocky and stony areas. It is active mostly on the ground or in the lower part of big rocks, large boulders and cliffs, but it climbs also trees, palm trunks and buildings (it has been found even inside houses at Hadiboh). During daytime it can be found under stones, trunks and dead vegetation.
