It works exactly as I hoped it would. Please make something similar for snakes.

It’s really easy to use. You just plug them in, set them up with your phone, and you’re done. We caught 4 scorpions already.

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

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 got 2 alerts our first week! These things really work, what a good idea, so easy to use. Much better than sticky traps, thank you so much!
Ajay
2 scorpions detected
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
15 scorpions detected
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.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the scorpion in my house dangerous, and when should I call Poison Control?
Most scorpions in the U.S. aren’t medically dangerous, but you should treat unknown scorpions with caution—especially depending on where you live, who’s at risk (kids, elderly, pregnant people, pets), and whether it was found on a wall or ceiling. This section also lists fast “call Poison Control” symptoms and emphasizes not waiting for a perfect species ID if symptoms show up. Use this scorpion danger and urgency guide to prioritize safety and containment first.
What does scorpion mating look like—are they fighting or mating?
Scorpion courtship often looks like two scorpions “holding hands” with their pincers while the male guides the female in a slow back-and-forth “dance,” which can be mistaken for a fight. The male places a spermatophore (a packet of sperm) on the ground and tries to position the female over it, so patios, pavers, and other stable surfaces can become mating spots at night. For a clear, step-by-step picture and safety tips, see this scorpion mating dance explained.
Why does cleaning help keep scorpions out of my house?
Cleaning helps mostly because it cuts off the insects scorpions hunt, not because scorpions are “attracted to dirt.” Crumbs, grease, and dust can fuel ants, roaches, and crickets in hidden zones (like under appliances or behind toilets), which draws predators up the chain. The prey-control cleaning tips for scorpions also explain why scorpions tend to travel along walls and baseboards, making perimeter clutter and edges more important than the middle of the room.
What should I do right away if I get stung by a scorpion in Buckeye?
Focus on quick, calm first aid: clean the sting site, manage pain, and monitor symptoms instead of trying dangerous “home remedies” like cutting, sucking, or using a tourniquet. Decide on urgent care vs. ER based on symptom severity, with extra caution for kids, older adults, or anyone having escalating reactions. The Buckeye scorpion sting steps section also explains what to document (time, symptoms, age/weight, and a photo if safe) to help medical professionals.
Is there a way to monitor for scorpions automatically without checking traps every day?
Because scorpions tend to patrol along walls and thresholds, perimeter monitoring can target the places they’re most likely to show up. Using UV fluorescence (scorpions glow under 365nm UV) can make detection easier without turning your home into a nightly search mission. This section explains automatic scorpion perimeter monitoring and how Scorpion Alert detectors use wall-outlet placement, rapid image capture, and AI-verified alerts to reduce surprise encounters.
How do scorpions get into my house, and what’s the best way to catch one early?
Scorpions slip in through small gaps like worn door sweeps, thresholds (including the garage-to-house door), plumbing/electrical penetrations, and cracks where exterior materials meet. Sealing helps, but no house is perfectly sealed—so it’s smart to verify whether anything is still getting in. This seal and monitor for scorpions section explains an “outside-in” approach and why perimeter-focused monitoring along baseboards can alert you sooner, especially at night.
