Scorpions

Scorpions belong to the spider class (Arachida) because they have 8 legs, no antennae and two body segments. Other insects have 6 legs and have antennae and 3 body segments.

Scorpions must have water but can go months without food. They like to eat a variety of insects and spiders as well as other scorpions and small lizards. They have very strong pincers and immobilize their prey by stinging them with a neurotoxic venom.

The sting of a scorpion is harmless unless you have an allergic reaction. The sting usually results in swelling and pain similar to a bee sting. Scorpions are not aggressive, most stings are a result of reaching into a shoe or glove and pressing against the stinger.

Scorpions need moisture so they mostly come out at night and hide in cool places during the day. They can enter the home through cracks and tight spaces. Doors and vents are typical entry points.

The best way to keep scorpions at bay is to make sure wood piles and clutter are kept away from the house. You can also place screening over the weep holes the run around your home at ground level. Weather-stripping of doors and windows help.

If you think you have a Scorpion problem call Hart’s Extermination today to schedule a free home inspection.

Testimonials
  • “I accepted some moving boxes from a friend and accidentally brought in a roach infestation. Apparently roaches live off of the glue in cardboard boxes so beware of those bearing moving supplies.

    Kimmie T. – Tustin, CA
  • “Thing is, my friend is P-S-Y-C-H-O-T-I-C about cockroaches. I mean, she went so bloody hysterical while he was adding the last slice of salami to his sandwich that I thought the neighbors were going to call the cops.

    Jesseca S. – Santa Monica, CA
  • I called Harts and spoke with Mark; I told him I have a swarm of bees in front of my house that I need to get rid of.

    A. D. – Laguna Niguel, CA
  • Mark has to be the nicest most honest guy I’ve ever met. He has been doing pest control at my house for years and we just adore him.

    Funny A. – San Clemente, CA
  • “Mark came out at our arranged time and treated the areas locally for a fraction of the price that the other company wanted for tenting.

    Amanda L – Laguna Hills, CA
  • “We live in Oceanside, a little in the boonies and have Coyotes, and raccoon and possum’s, rabbits, moles and squirrels all over our property bringing in fleas and we fight a losing battle every summer

    Pat C. – Oceanside, CA
