Scorpion Inspection
Scorpion Inspectors from Insectek can find bark scorpions hiding in your home or office and also find where the stinging pests are getting-indoors.
Signs of Scorpions In Your House
The first sign of a scorpion infestation is seeing the scorpions themselves. Scorpions are easily spotted on white walls, with their yellowish translucent color, but can blend-in on carpet couches and chairs. Unlike other pests, scorpions aren’t usually spotted until its too late – if you are seeing them, you have lots more hidden in other places.

Common Scorpions in AZ
- Arizona Bark Scorpions – Arizona Bark Scorpions are easy to set apart from other Arizona scorpions due to their long, skinny tails. They have highly venomous stings that are dangerous, extremely painful, and sometimes fatal. It’s critical to seek medical attention after a bark scorpion sting.
- Arizona Giant Hairy Scorpion – The Arizona Giant Hairy Scorpion is called giant for a reason – it’s the largest scorpion in the entire United States! They are identified by their large size, dense hairiness, yellowish appendages, and dark dorsals. You’ll likely find them in saguaro forests.
- Arizona Stripetail Scorpion – The most common Arizona scorpion is the Arizona Stripetail. It is yellowish with dark dorsal stripes. You’ll find these guys underneath rocks and, unfortunately, inside homes.
- Yellow Ground Scorpions – Like the Arizona Bark Scorpion, the Yellow Ground Scorpion is slender with a yellowish body. These guys are nocturnal and are found typically in southeastern Arizona.

Arizona Scorpion Information & Resources
What Attracts Scorpions?
Shelter
Scorpions frequently seek shelter in homes or other buildings to escape the heat and light. They like the dark because it makes them feel safe—they can’t be seen as easily by predators—and they’re better able to sneak up on prey. Indoor environs also offer cooler temperatures, allowing scorpions to preserve water and regulate their body temperature.
Water
Like all other animals, scorpions need water to survive. They often wander into homes through pipes, drains, and plumbing systems in hopes of quenching that thirst.
Food
Scorpions’ diet consists of insects and other arachnids, as well as small lizards and mammals. If you have any of these pests in your home, scorpions may find their way inside for a meal.
Ways to Fight the Scourge of Scorpions
- Remove debris from the perimeter of your home.
- Seal any cracks around your house to keep scorpions from finding their way inside. You can refer to our scorpion home seal guide for ways to seal off your home from all manner of pests.
- Remove sources of food.
- Eliminate standing water and repair leaks in things like air conditioners and outdoor faucets.
- Use glue boards/sticky traps to monitor an infestation.
