This is by far the best way to catch these little b*$t%rds.

8 scorpions detected
The picture and location that come with an alert is so helpful in figuring out where the scorpion is going. It usually hasn't traveled very far by the time I get there.

Setup is simple. Results are guaranteed.
1. Plug In Scorpion Detectors
Scorpions often travel along walls and baseboards, especially in the dark. That's why Scorpion Detectors are designed to activate when the lights go out, detecting movement along the edges where scorpions are most likely to roam. Just plug in a few around your home for targeted, energy-efficient coverage.

4. Seal Entry Points
The more Scorpion Detectors you place around your home, the better your chances of spotting scorpions early near where they're getting in. Each Detector shows how many scorpions were detected in that spot, so you can focus on the areas that need attention most. We'll help you find those entry points and seal them up for good.

25-35 babies per year

1,685 hospitalizations a year
An average of 1,685 people require hospitalization for scorpion stings every year. In severe cases, scorpion stings can result in severe neurological symptoms, including difficulty swallowing, involuntary eye movement, and respiratory distress.

Jessica

We don’t get as many alerts any more now that we’ve figured out how to seal up our vents, but we were getting a lot of alerts in the beginning.
Leticia
15 scorpions detected
We can finally go on offense against these things instead of waiting to find them in our couch and shoes. It really helps us figure out where they're getting in. Love it.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are brown scorpions in Texas poisonous or venomous?
Most people mean “venomous,” because scorpions inject venom with a stinger rather than harming you by being touched or eaten. This distinction helps you focus on sting symptoms, first aid, and when to seek medical advice—especially for kids, seniors, pets, or anyone with a severe reaction. See brown scorpions in Texas venom risk for what to expect and why species ID matters.
I found a scorpion in my house—does that mean there are more?
One scorpion can be a lone wanderer, but it can also be a clue that your home has the moisture, hiding spots, and insect activity that can support repeat encounters. “More” doesn’t always mean a nest—scorpions are usually solitary, yet multiple individuals may use the same favorable areas over time. This section explains when scorpion sightings mean more and what to check next.
Does regular house cleaning really stop scorpions from coming inside?
Cleaning doesn't repel scorpions directly, but it breaks the food chain that attracts them. Crumbs feed ants, ants feed spiders, and spiders are a scorpion's favorite meal. By eliminating food sources and moisture, you remove the reason scorpions enter homes. Learn specific cleaning techniques that target scorpion prey and make your home less attractive to these nighttime hunters.
How can I identify a scorpion safely without getting too close?
This section explains how to do “ID from a distance” using the most helpful traits: color/striping, pincer thickness, tail thickness, size, and whether it acts like a climber or a ground-dweller. You’ll also get a quick photo checklist (top-down and side angle, plus an object for scale) so a pro can identify it more reliably. Follow the safe scorpion identification features overview.
Why is sealing my house considered the #1 way to stop scorpions?
Sealing works because the goal isn’t to kill every scorpion outside—it’s to stop new ones from getting in, which breaks the cycle that makes spraying feel endless. The article explains how scorpions travel along edges and exploit tiny perimeter gaps, so blocking those routes can drastically reduce indoor sightings over time. See the reasoning in why sealing stops scorpions entering.
I found one scorpion in my house—does that mean there are more?
Maybe. Scorpions are usually solitary hunters, but one indoor sighting does prove there’s an entry route and at least one indoor hiding spot that “works.” This section explains what a single scorpion can and can’t tell you, plus a simple low/medium/high risk ladder based on repeat sightings, where you’re seeing them, and whether you spot juveniles in the one scorpion means more guide.
