We tried everything. Pest control companies, glue traps, powders. None of it worked as well as this.

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

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?

3 to 8 years undetected

Scorpions can live in your house for months or even years undetected, especially if the conditions are right. With enough food and water, scorpions often live between 3-8 years.

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

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.

Super easy setup. We just plugged the Scorpion Detectors in, set them up with my phone, and that was it. I love the live feed on my phone to let me know they're always watching.

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

Frequently Asked Questions

Why do scorpions keep showing up along baseboards and walls?

Scorpions often travel by “edge-hugging,” using walls, corners, and thresholds like a navigation rail instead of crossing open floors. They can cross a room when motivated (prey, water, or disturbance), but the highest-probability search and trap zones are still the perimeter. This is why perimeter-focused scouting and monitoring works better than checking the middle of rooms in this scorpion thigmotaxis wall-hugging behavior guide.

Do scorpions really have eyes, or are they basically blind?

Scorpions aren’t blind—they have multiple eyes, typically a pair on top (median eyes) and additional eyes on the sides, though the exact number varies by species. Their vision is best for sensing light, contrast, and movement rather than sharp detail, which is why they can seem “blind” to people. This overview of do scorpions have eyes explains what their eyes can (and can’t) do and why being nocturnal doesn’t mean they’re sightless.

Why does a scorpion freeze under UV light instead of running, and what does that mean for me?

Under UV/blacklight, scorpions fluoresce and many will pause or “freeze,” which can make it feel like they’re not reacting the way you expect. That behavior can help you spot one safely, but it doesn’t guarantee you’ve found every scorpion—juveniles and hidden individuals can still be missed. The article shares a simple, safer sweep routine and also explains automated nighttime monitoring options in safe UV scorpion inspection tips.

What should I do if I’m stung by a scorpion in Alamogordo?

Focus on calm, practical first aid in the first hour: clean the area, manage pain, and start a simple symptom log while avoiding risky home remedies. Use local decision points for who to call (Poison Control vs a doctor vs 911) based on red-flag symptoms and higher-risk groups like kids, seniors, and pets. This Alamogordo scorpion sting action plan summarizes what to monitor and how to handle the scorpion safely if it’s still inside.

Are scorpions a problem in Sahuarita, AZ, or just an occasional nuisance?

Scorpions are a common concern for Sahuarita homeowners in Pima County, especially in desert-edge neighborhoods and areas with newer construction that can disturb habitat. “A problem” can range from an occasional garage or patio sighting to repeat indoor activity along baseboards, bathrooms, and laundry rooms at night. This Sahuarita scorpion problem signs guide explains what patterns suggest an ongoing issue versus a one-off visitor.

How do I keep scorpions out of my house in California and know if they’re inside?

Prevention works best as a step-by-step plan: remove hiding spots, seal entry points, reduce the insects they feed on, and then monitor high-risk areas. The article includes a checklist for scorpion-prone zones like garages, bathrooms/laundry rooms, bedrooms, baseboards, and cluttered storage. For a practical rundown, see these California scorpion prevention steps, including ways to monitor at night without constant blacklight walks.
