From Our Customers
We can't use glue traps and we don't want to smash scorpion guts into our new carpet, so Scorpion Alert is perfect for us.

We were finding scorpions in our couch! Now that we're using Scorpion Detectors, we catch them before they make it that far.

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.
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.

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.

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.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are scorpions a problem in Surprise, Arizona?
Yes—Surprise is in Maricopa County, where scorpion sightings can be common in certain neighborhoods and home types, especially when prey insects, water, and shelter are easy to find. This section explains why scorpions end up indoors (following edges and perimeters, slipping in through small gaps), how to gauge your risk this week, and when repeated sightings suggest a nearby harborage. It also covers clear “call a pro” triggers and what a solid inspection should include in Surprise AZ scorpion control.
What should I do after a brown scorpion sting, and how do I prevent more?
Start with practical first aid: wash the area, remove tight jewelry, use cold packs in short intervals, elevate the limb, and monitor symptoms for any progression. Seek urgent help for breathing trouble, facial swelling/hives, trouble swallowing, uncontrolled movements, or severe symptoms—especially in children, older adults, or pets. The checklist in brown scorpion sting first aid steps also covers prevention habits like reducing clutter and hiding spots, managing insects, and improving basic exclusion.
Why am I still seeing scorpions after pest control?
Pest control can reduce scorpion activity, but it often doesn’t stop sightings entirely because new scorpions may keep entering and any already inside can continue roaming at night. A better goal is measurable progress over 30–60 days (fewer indoor sightings, sightings closer to likely entry points, and a clear downward trend), not instant elimination. This section also explains what to ask your pest company about products, treatment areas, and visit frequency in the why scorpions persist after spraying.
What should I do 30 days before listing to reduce scorpion sightings during showings?
Focus on high-impact steps that reduce sightings fast: basic sealing and exclusion (door sweeps, weatherstripping, sealing gaps), decluttering along walls/edges, and cutting down insect prey around the home. Schedule pest service early enough to show consistency (not a last-minute scramble), and document what you did with receipts and before/after photos. This 30-day scorpion listing checklist also covers when a nighttime UV inspection is worth doing and how to interpret results (outdoor vs. indoor finds).
How can I keep scorpions out of my Sahuarita home (without relying on one spray)?
The most reliable approach is layered: seal entry points (door sweeps, weatherstripping, plumbing gaps, garage edges), reduce harborage in yards/garages, and cut down the insects that attract scorpions. Because scorpions roam at night along perimeters, monitoring helps confirm whether your changes are working and where activity concentrates near doors and high-risk rooms. This Sahuarita scorpion prevention checklist lays out the steps and explains why night monitoring can replace constant blacklight walks.
Are Reddit scorpion product reviews more trustworthy than Amazon reviews?
They can be, but only when the reviewer gives “real desert homeowner” context like scorpion species (especially bark scorpions), whether activity is in bedrooms vs garage vs yard, and how heat/stucco/weep holes affect entry points. The most useful reviews also describe exactly where the product was used and whether sightings dropped over the following weeks—not just one dramatic kill. This section includes a quick checklist for spotting actionable reviews in the real desert homeowner product review guide.
