Sacramento County Scorpion Control Services
Scorpions can be scary to deal with, whether you own a home or a commercial property. Left to their own devices, scorpions can introduce health risks and do damage to property. That’s not to say nothing of the harm they can cause with their stings. It’s important that an infestation cleanout be thorough, and that it be accompanied by effective preventive measures. Our scorpion control service techs aim to provide you with just that.
How Scorpions Get In
Scorpions are adept at finding their way into your home. Their common tactics include:
- Cracks and crevices: Scorpions can enter homes through the tiniest of cracks and crevices in house exteriors, walls, and garage structures.
- Windows and doors: Improperly sealed windows and doors create opportunities for scorpions to slip inside.
- Utility entry points: Scorpions often exploit openings around electric, phone, and other utility lines entering the house
When our scorpion control team comes to clean out your infestation, they’ll also recommend a program of prevention.

The Dangers of Scorpion Infestations
Scorpion infestations pose significant dangers to both property and human health, making them a serious concern for homeowners and businesses.
The risks include:
Medical Complications
While most scorpion stings lead to localized pain, swelling, and redness, certain species can deliver venom that causes more severe symptoms, including muscle twitching, respiratory distress, and even paralysis. In extreme cases, scorpion stings can be life-threatening.
Property Damage
Scorpions may seek shelter in dark, secluded areas such as closets, attics, and basements, creating a persistent nuisance and potential safety hazard for occupants. Furthermore, the presence of scorpions may deter potential buyers or renters, impacting property values and causing reputational harm to businesses.
Psychological Stress
Fear of encountering scorpions can lead to heightened stress, anxiety, and reduced quality of life for those affected by infestations. This emotional toll should not be underestimated and underscores the urgency of addressing scorpion problems comprehensively and effectively.
The Signs of a Scorpion Infestation
The fast recognition of an infestation allows our scorpion control technicians to take timely action.
Any of these red flags are a good reason to give our office a call:
- Shed exoskeletons: As scorpions grow, they periodically shed their exoskeletons, leaving behind these translucent remnants as a sign of their presence.
- Pet behavior: Pets, especially cats and dogs, may exhibit heightened alertness, pawing at or investigating specific areas where scorpions are present.
- Sightings: This is the most obvious indicator. Encountering scorpions indoors, particularly in closets, attics, basements, or garages, is a clear indication that an infestation may be afoot.
Safe Scorpion Control Treatment Methods
Using eco-friendly products, like we do here at Pro Active Pest Control, is a big part of protecting environmental sustainability and human health.
Our eco-friendly cleaning products minimize harm to the environment by utilizing natural and biodegradable ingredients that are less likely to accumulate in ecosystems and cause long-term damage to wildlife and natural habitats. By opting for eco-friendly solutions, you can effectively combat the scorpion infestation without compromising the delicate balance of the local ecosystem.
Our products also contribute to promoting the health and safety of occupants in your home. Traditional cleaning agents often contain harsh chemicals that can pose risks to human health, particularly when used in enclosed spaces. Eco-friendly alternatives reduce your exposure to harmful toxins.
