Found scorpions around your property? Enviro Guard helps Las Vegas homeowners and business owners find where scorpions are getting in, what is bringing them close, and how to treat the problem.
Every scorpion problem is different. That’s why we don’t just spray where you saw a scorpion and leave.
Our technicians inspect your property for signs of activity, entry points, and places where scorpions may be hiding. We’ll explain what we find and suggest a treatment plan based on your property and the level of activity.
Whether you’ve found one scorpion or you’re seeing them often, we’ll help you understand what is going on and what to do next.
Scorpions are looking for three basic things: food, shelter, and moisture.
Las Vegas is hot and dry, so shaded areas around your home can give scorpions a place to hide. Rock landscaping, block walls, garages, and other protected areas can all become hiding spots.
Common conditions include:
Scorpions also eat insects. If you have a lot of insects around your home, you may also have a food source that keeps scorpions nearby.
Seeing one scorpion does not always mean you have an infestation. A single outdoor sighting is not unusual in the Las Vegas Valley. But repeated sightings, scorpions inside your home, or scorpions in several areas of your property are good reasons to schedule an inspection.
Two scorpions often found in Southern Nevada are the Arizona bark scorpion and the desert hairy scorpion.
Not sure what you found? You don’t have to identify it yourself. Our technicians can help identify the scorpion and explain what it may mean for your property.
Scorpions are mostly active at night. During the day, they often stay in dark, protected places.
Common hiding spots include:
Scorpions can also glow under ultraviolet light. That’s why nighttime UV inspections can help our technicians find scorpions that are hard to see during the day.
Scorpions don’t need a large opening to get into your home.
They may enter through:
Landscaping and outdoor shelter close to your home can also bring scorpions closer to these entry points.
That’s why treating only the inside of your home may not solve the problem. Good scorpion control also looks at what is happening outside.
Scorpions are hard to find because they spend much of their time hidden. They are mostly active at night and can move through small openings around a property.
Spraying the one scorpion you saw does not always solve the reason it was there.
Effective scorpion pest control in Las Vegas means looking at the whole property. We look for places where scorpions may be entering, hiding, and finding food.
This helps us build a treatment plan that fits your property instead of using the same approach for every home.
Follow-Up
Some properties may need more than one visit. Others may only need a one-time treatment and prevention work.
If ongoing service makes sense for your property, we’ll explain why. We won’t automatically recommend recurring service when you don’t need it.
Killing the scorpion you see doesn’t necessarily solve the infestation.
There is no single price for every property. The cost of scorpion control can depend on:
An inspection helps us understand what your property needs. This means you aren’t paying for a treatment plan that may not fit your situation.
If you find a scorpion, a few simple steps can help:
These steps can reduce hiding places and entry points. However, they may not be enough if you have an active scorpion problem.
You can’t remove every scorpion from the Las Vegas desert. But you can make your property harder for them to enter and less attractive to them.
Keep up with cracks and gaps around your home. Keep landscaping and outdoor storage from creating shelter next to the house. Reduce extra moisture and limit insect activity around the property.
If our inspection finds conditions that may be helping the problem, fixing those conditions is an important part of long-term scorpion control.
Most scorpion stings cause pain and other symptoms around the sting. Some can be more serious.
Arizona bark scorpions are especially important to take seriously because their venom can cause stronger symptoms.
If someone develops severe symptoms after a sting, seek medical care right away. Keep children and pets away from areas where scorpions have been found, and never handle a live scorpion.
Not always. A single scorpion, especially outside, is not unusual in Las Vegas. Repeated sightings or finding scorpions inside your home are better reasons to have your property inspected.
Scorpions may be getting in through small gaps around your home. Insects, moisture, and nearby hiding places can also keep scorpions close to the property.
They can enter through gaps under doors, damaged screens, cracks, utility openings, and other small gaps around your home.
You can remove hiding places, seal obvious gaps, reduce extra moisture, and improve screens and door sweeps. But repeated scorpion activity may need professional inspection and treatment.
It depends on your property and how much activity you have. Some homes may only need one treatment. Others may benefit from regular service. An inspection can help determine what is right for you.
Arizona bark scorpions are considered medically significant because their venom can cause more serious symptoms than many other scorpions. If a sting causes severe symptoms, seek medical care.
You don’t have to guess if that scorpion was a one-time visitor or part of a bigger problem.
Enviro Guard can inspect your property, explain what we find, and recommend the right next step. That could be a one-time treatment, prevention work, or ongoing scorpion pest control in Las Vegas.
