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.

From Our Customers
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.

Scorpion Alert is the only subscription we never consider canceling. It’s essential out here, especially with our kids and puppies.

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.

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.

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

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
How can I prevent scorpion stings so we don’t have to worry about antivenom?
Prevention is the everyday solution: seal entry gaps, reduce clutter and harborage, control insects (their food source), and focus on high-risk entry points and room edges where scorpions travel. For night-time peace of mind, detection can add an early-warning layer—scorpions fluoresce under UV, and automated monitoring can help you find them without constant blacklight walks. This scorpion sting prevention checklist summarizes practical steps and what to do when you spot one.
How do I stop scorpions from coming back after I kill one?
After a sighting, focus on sealing entry points, reducing clutter/hiding spots, and cutting off food and water sources, then monitor the next few nights with UV checks along baseboards, thresholds, and corners. The section also compares sticky traps (and their drawbacks) with a monitoring hierarchy that includes automated detection for faster alerts before a scorpion disappears again. You’ll find a practical checklist and monitoring options in stop scorpions from coming back.
What happens at the ER for a scorpion sting—and how can I prevent another one?
At the ER, clinicians typically monitor vital signs, manage pain and muscle symptoms, and consider antivenom (like Anascorp) when symptoms are moderate/severe and consistent with significant envenomation. Many mild stings improve over time, while more intense neurologic symptoms may require observation until they resolve. This scorpion sting ER treatment overview also covers practical prevention steps like sealing gaps, reducing clutter, and keeping bedding/shoes off the floor.
What should I do right after a scorpion sting at home, and when should I call Poison Control?
Start with simple first aid: wash the area, remove tight jewelry, use a cool compress, keep the person calm, and track the time and symptoms. Most stings are painful but not life-threatening, but you should escalate quickly for breathing/swallowing trouble, severe or spreading symptoms, face/neck stings, or any worsening symptoms in children. This scorpion sting first aid steps also highlights what not to do (like cutting the skin, suction, tourniquets, or risky home remedies).
What symptoms mean I should go to the ER right now after a scorpion sting?
Go to the ER for neurologic or whole-body symptoms like uncontrolled twitching, abnormal eye movements, trouble swallowing/drooling, confusion, spreading numbness, or severe agitation—especially if symptoms worsen after briefly improving. Adults should also treat breathing trouble, chest pain, irregular heartbeat, repeated vomiting, or severe shaking as ER-level concerns. Use this scorpion sting ER symptoms checklist to quickly decide between ER, urgent care, or home monitoring.
How do I mix and apply Cy-Kick CS or Demand CS so they actually work on scorpions?
Technique beats brand: follow the label rate, don’t under-dose, and focus on the perimeter edges and cracks scorpions use as “highways” (expansion joints, block wall tops/bases, thresholds, door frames, and the garage perimeter). If you’re hiring a service, ask what concentration they’re using—some dilute far below stronger label-allowed rates for tougher pests, which can reduce results. This mix and apply CS sprays walkthrough explains the exact targets and reapplication timing.
