It works exactly as I hoped it would. Please make something similar for snakes.
We haven’t come across a scorpion in our house unexpectedly since we started using this.
This is a really great way to solve the scorpion problem. No mess, easy to use technology.
Check your baby's play areas daily, especially along baseboards where scorpions travel. Never leave blankets or toys on the floor overnight, and inspect cribs before placing your infant inside. Many parents use UV detection to monitor nurseries, as detailed in this guide to protecting infants from scorpion stings in high-risk states.
Pet food doesn't attract scorpions directly — it attracts roaches, which are prime scorpion prey. Feed pets on a schedule, pick up bowls within 30 minutes, and store all pet food in sealed plastic containers. Learn more pet-related cleaning strategies to reduce scorpion activity and break the food chain that brings these predators indoors.
Scorpions don’t chase people like predators—most fast movement is an escape response to get back to cover. When one seems to run “at you,” it’s often trying to reach a wall or edge route (baseboards) and you happen to be in the way. This section explains why scorpions don’t chase humans and what to do instead of chasing it across the floor.
Your first minute matters: don’t panic, don’t take your eyes off it, and keep kids and pets out of the room. Isolate the area by closing interior doors, turning on lights, and putting on closed-toe shoes before you make any move. Use a safe tool (not your hands) and follow the step-by-step guidance in first steps after spotting a scorpion.
Scorpions usually aren’t trying to pursue people—they’re typically fleeing toward cover, especially along walls and baseboards. Stings are most often defensive, like when one is stepped on, trapped in bedding/clothes, or handled. This can scorpions chase you breakdown explains why they “hug” edges and what to do if one bolts under furniture.
Yes—scorpions give live birth, and the tiny newborn scorplings climb onto mom’s back for protection and a “free ride.” They typically stay there until their first molt, often about 1–2 weeks. If a mother scorpion wanders indoors, the babies can come with her, which is why mother scorpions carrying babies indoors can catch homeowners off guard.
