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.

2. Get Instant Alerts
When a scorpion is detected, you'll receive an instant alert with its exact location and a clear photo. The image will help you understand where the scorpion is headed so you can respond effectively. The app also makes it easy to manage your Detectors, adjust alert settings, and stay in control at all times.

3. Neutralize The Threat
Everyone reacts to alerts differently, and that's okay. We'll guide you through smart, safe ways to get prepared and handle any alert with confidence.

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.
Did You Know?
25-35 babies per year
A female scorpion can give birth to 25-35 babies. Baby scorpions ride on their mother's back until they molt, so catching them early is critical to prevent infestation.
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.

Why homeowners trust the system
We’re in a new neighborhood with a lot of construction. Our Detectors are staying busy, but getting notifications is better than getting surprised.

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

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.

Frequently Asked Questions
What should I do right away if I’m stung by a scorpion in Goodyear?
The article gives a calm, step-by-step plan for the first 10 minutes (clean the area, use a cool compress, stay calm and limit movement) and lists common mistakes to avoid. It also explains exactly when to call Poison Control, urgent care, or 911—especially for kids, seniors, medically fragile people, or severe symptoms. You’ll also see what information to gather for clinicians and how to document the scorpion safely in this Goodyear scorpion sting first aid checklist.
Why are scorpions getting into my house all of a sudden?
Scorpions usually come indoors for a simple reason: they’re following food (insects), moisture, and safe “edge-travel” routes along walls and foundations. Even a clean home can have micro-oasis spots like AC condensate, pet water, irrigation overspray, or small leaks that boost bug activity and bring scorpions hunting at night. This why scorpions enter houses guide also explains why repeat sightings don’t necessarily mean a “nest,” and what tiny scorpions can indicate.
What should I do before setting up my Scorpion Detector?
Before you start, make sure you have the Scorpion Alert app installed and you know your Wi‑Fi name and password exactly as written (they’re case-sensitive). The biggest requirement is that Scorpion Detectors connect to 2.4GHz Wi‑Fi only, and setup works best when you pair one Detector at a time while standing a few feet away. This Scorpion Detector setup prep checklist also explains the optional child-protection screw and the best outlet height for an unobstructed view.
How can I detect scorpions at night without doing UV patrols every evening?
Continuous monitoring solves the problem that scorpions move while you sleep, so you’re not relying on occasional searches or discovering one days later. This section compares automated, photo-verified alerts to passive traps and explains how Scorpion Alert uses UV plus a two-stage AI process to reduce false positives, then notifies you via push (and optional SMS). It also covers where to place devices for the biggest payoff in this automated scorpion detection system.
When is scorpion season in Gilbert, and what should I do each month?
Scorpion activity in Gilbert tracks warm nights, then often spikes with monsoon humidity—so the worst weeks can follow rain and moisture changes, not just heat. This section outlines the most active times of night for inspections and gives a season-by-season plan (spring sealing, early-summer prey reduction, monsoon moisture control, fall maintenance, winter declutter/repairs). Use the Gilbert scorpion season calendar to prioritize what matters most as conditions shift.
What kind of scorpions live in Phoenix—and is it the bark scorpion?
Phoenix-area homeowners most often worry about the Arizona bark scorpion because it’s the species most associated with medically significant stings in the metro region. That said, sightings can involve multiple Maricopa County species, and you shouldn’t rely on color alone for identification — bark scorpions tend to be slender and tan with a thin tail, but a confident ID comes from shape and behavior together. This Phoenix scorpion species guide breaks down what to know.
