The Habits And Behaviors Of Scorpions

Scorpions are predators and seek out prey everywhere they go. They are highly mobile creatures that hunt at night. Scorpions are naturally wary of predators and seek to avoid contact with humans. They are all venomous and use their venom to immobilize their prey by holding on to it with their claws while stinging it. Scorpions prefer to hide in confined, dark areas during the day and only come out to hunt at night. They are not overly aggressive creatures but will sting if they feel threatened.

There are many types of scorpions, but none that you would want in your house. If you have scorpion problems and are seeking quality scorpion control, contact All-Safe Pest & Termite. We can help you.

Why You Don't Want Scorpions Crawling Around The Property

Because scorpions like hiding in cramped, dark areas, they are fond of crawling into many things around houses. Anything that offers them a dark, quiet place to hide looks great to them, and unfortunate encounters with scorpions can lead to venomous stings. To make matters worse, some scorpions possess what is known as medically significant venom, that is, venom that is strong enough to cause problems with humans. Children and pets tend to be particularly susceptible to scorpion encounters due to their natural curiosity and smaller size. Scorpions tend to be located around areas with plenty of prey, and if your property offers plenty of it, you can count on there being plenty of scorpions around you.

Don't take a chance on the safety and security of your family when scorpions are around. All-Safe Pest & Termite knows how to keep scorpions away. Call us today to get scorpions out of your house and out of your life.

Factors That Attract Scorpions To Your Property

The two main things that attract scorpions to your property are food and housing opportunities. Food for scorpions happens to be pest insects, and whatever draws insects will draw scorpions. Here are some of the things that draw both:

  • Exposed garbage outside: Bugs love garbage and flock to it. Scorpions pursue them.
  • Outside clutter: Scorpions and insects love hiding in clutter. Clean it to avoid this.
  • Easy access: Gaps, cracks, and holes offer both bugs and scorpions ways in.
  • Inside garbage/food: Any inside food source attracts pests, and then scorpions.

These are some of the things that attract bugs, which will then attract scorpions. Addressing these problems can reduce, but not eliminate, scorpion problems around your home. When you discover scorpions, contact us. All-Safe Pest & Termite has a history of successfully treating pest infestations, including scorpions.
