From Our Customers
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.

I like seeing them turn on, night after night. Security guards that never quit.
Leah
5 scorpions detected
Our 1 year old got stung in a room we never would have expected to find a scorpion. We ordered 5 scorpion detectors the next day.

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

Thank you for giving us the peace of mind in knowing these things aren't crawling around in our newborn's room at night and hiding in her toys or clothes.
James and Anna

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 is the month-by-month Arizona scorpion season timeline for 2026?
The timeline lays out what to expect from January through December, including why “quiet months” can still produce indoor sightings during warm spells. It also turns each period into an action plan (prep in March, increased routines in April–May, heat/monsoon response in summer, and off-season sealing in fall/winter). The month-by-month Arizona scorpion timeline includes caveats for microclimates, so you can match expectations to your exact area.
What’s the best way to keep scorpions out of my house long-term?
A reliable plan uses multiple layers: reduce the insects scorpions eat, seal entry points, apply an exterior barrier in the right places, remove any indoor stragglers, and then monitor so you catch activity early. It also gives an order of operations (what to do this week vs. what pays off over the next 30–60 days) and realistic budgeting options if you can’t do everything at once. The framework is laid out as a five-layer scorpion defense plan.
How dangerous is a scorpion sting in Apache Junction?
Most scorpion stings cause localized pain, redness, or tingling, but Arizona bark scorpion stings can be medically significant—especially for kids and other higher-risk individuals. The key is knowing which symptoms are “watch and manage” versus red flags like trouble swallowing, unusual eye movements, drooling, or widespread muscle twitching. This Apache Junction scorpion sting safety overview breaks down symptoms and when to treat it as urgent.
What actually keeps scorpions out of my house long-term?
Long-term control starts with blocking entry points (door sweeps, weatherstripping, caulk, and sealing utility penetrations), then reducing harborage near the foundation and cutting down prey insects that attract scorpions. A quick inspection method is using a flashlight and a credit-card-gap test at doors to find high-leverage leaks first. For a weekend-friendly checklist you can follow in order, use this long-term scorpion exclusion checklist.
Do UV blacklights really help you find scorpions at night, and how do I use one?
Yes—scorpions fluoresce under UV light, which can make nighttime searches much easier when you sweep slowly along baseboards, thresholds, corners, and other travel lanes. This section also covers where to look first (bedrooms, bathrooms, laundry, kitchen edges, and garages) and why UV is best for spotting scorpions, while white-light photos are often better for markings. For a step-by-step approach, see this UV blacklight scorpion search method.
How can I detect scorpions fast—and how do I know if my house is infested?
Detection works best when you monitor the routes scorpions actually use: along walls, door thresholds, hallway bottlenecks, and moisture areas like bathrooms or laundry rooms. Sticky traps can confirm activity, while real-time alerts can shorten the time a scorpion has to reach bedrooms before you notice it. This how to detect scorpions quickly section also defines “infested” in practical terms and gives an escalation plan for recurring sightings.
