About Us

# We help families detect scorpions in their homes before it's too late.
We're dedicated to delivering safety, reliability, and affordable peace of mind with no mess, no fuss. Our Scorpion Detectors help you spot scorpions early so you can act quickly and protect what matters most.

## Why did we start this company?

Our infant son was stung twice in the leg, in the last room we ever thought we'd find a scorpion. No windows. No vents. No plumbing. Just a quiet playroom full of toys.

We had sticky traps throughout the house, and we checked them often. But that scorpion had wandered far deeper into our home than we thought possible. Who knows how long it had been living among us.

That day changed everything. Sticky traps weren’t enough. We needed a better way to detect scorpions early.

## Who do we help?

Our solution was built with families in mind—especially parents with small children or pets. But we don’t stop there. Scorpion Alert also protects:

- Airbnbs and vacation rentals, where guest safety is a top priority
- Hotels, where a single sting could lead to liability or bad reviews
- Restaurants and commercial kitchens, where pests should never be part of the story
- Offices and retail spaces, where employees and customers deserve a safe environment

## How does Scorpion Alert work?
It's simple. Plug a few Scorpion Detectors into your standard wall outlets around your home. When a room gets dark, Scorpion Detectors illuminate the floor below with UV LED lights, making scorpions glow. When their glow is detected, you receive an instant alert with a picture of the scorpion and its exact location.[See how it works →](https://www.scorpionalert.com/scorpion-detectors)How Scorpion Alert works
