Can anyone recommend a good pest control service that would hopefully eliminate our scorpion problems? We used Blue Sky Pest Control in the past and I was not happy with their service.
You can check out the internet, yellow page or check out the article for other people's recommendations.
I don't know where you are located but we have been using Chandler Pest Control for the past two years and they are wonderful. They are a nice family run business that are very friendly and efficient.
R., we use KYKO Pest Prevention and have been very happy with their services. I do not think that you can eliminate scorpions. They are very teritorial but you can take away their food source and that really helps to decrease the numbers. They also offer a home sealing option that we used where the seal up cracks in the home and we noticed a big difference in how many scorpions we found inside the home. Good Luck!
Hi R.,
I use Bulwark Pest Control for my scorpion problem and their staff is awesome. They have helped to control my scorpion problem, but not eliminate-- I am not sure if anyone can eliminate. Their website is http://bulwarkpestcontrol.com/ or can be reached at ###-###-####. Best of luck!

I have had 3 months of great satisfaction with our new Pest Control person who is in east Mesa, Bill George of Desert Castle Pest Control. ###-###-#### and I can have him email you if you'd like. Coincidently, our biggest problem he has helped resolve is scorpions. You don't have to seal your house, you need to get rid of the scorpions food source, and Bill has done this at our house! You'll love him...everyone in my neighborhood who uses him now (4 other neighbors) has told me how great he is! And if you like him and refer him to another new client, he gives you a month for free!
We have the scorpion slayer as our pest service. He is really good and we have not seen a scorpion since the 4 yr old I nannied for got stung in the neck. Also if you have a child in a crib put the crib feet in mason jars becuase scorpions can't climb them. The gentleman who owns it is really nice and explains what steps you can take to help eliminate scorpions in your home along with the service he provides. If you choose to use him tell him L. at 60 W Shamrock st refered you.
I have found if a company uses a black light to find them and seals cracks and ways in it helps. also remove the food sourse of scorpians which is crickets and food.
In our old house we had a scorpian situation...terminex took care of it and we didn't see anymore the year and half we lived there. The only thing is you have to have a contract with them.
Hi R.,
We use Debug Pest Managemnt (formerly Shurgard) and have since November of 2007 when a scorpion crawled into bed one night with our then 4 year old. The technicians name is John Roots and we think he is great. He is reasonably priced and since November we have only seen 3 or 4, all but one were already dead and the last one we saw was almost dead. He sprays our house both inside and out. He uses a special spray that is safe for the kiddos. His number is ###-###-####. Hope this helps.
hi,we had a same problem.None works.The pest control guy said that camicals don't work on scorpions.You just have to catch them on the sticky thing ,that the only thing that works with scorpions.you have to put it everywhere especially by the doors. it does work well and some times we would have about 10 scorpions on the sticky mat(a day). you can ask pest control service where you can get the sticky mats,our guy gatve it to us everytime we need it.
My mother-in-law runs Chandler Pest Control here in Queen Creek and they are wonderful! They won't make you sign a contract or anything and they do a great job. Give them a call at ###-###-#### and tell them about your scorpions - they'll be glad to help!
All Guard Pest Control. If you end up using them,please give them my name, so I can get a free month (K. Hendricks). We have been using them for 3 years - very good.
My understanding is that they can't guarantee to get rid of scorpions, they only eliminate their food. I hope you find a service you are happy with. I am sorry I am not much help.

I don't have a specific company to recommend. We used Alpha Ecological, and they were fine. Not great or terrible, but they worked. However, I was given some advice that if I ever have scorpions, to take a bucket of those chlorine bleach tablets, and crush them up. Then take the crushed tablets and put a line of the tablets in front of the door or wherever it is that they are entering, and the scorpions wouldn't cross it. If it is an outside door, I would put it on the outside so that the kids don't get to it. I have never tried this, but it was recommened to me by the pest guy. Good luck!!
