Scorpions Control
Scorpiones
Scorpions are predatory arachnids recognized by their grasping pedipalps (pincers) and the stinging tail curved forward over their back.
How to Identify Scorpions
Proper identification is the first step in effective pest control. Scorpions have distinct physical characteristics and behaviors that help distinguish them from other common household pests. Look for these key identifiers:
- Eight legs
- Prominent pincers
- Segmented tail ending in a stinger
- Glow under ultraviolet (black) light
Are Scorpions Dangerous?
All scorpions possess venom, but most species in the US cause a sting similar to a wasp. However, the Bark Scorpion (found in the Southwest) has venom that can cause severe medical issues, especially in children and the elderly.
Why Do I Have Scorpions?
Scorpions enter homes seeking shelter from extreme heat or cold, or following their prey (insects).
