Scorpions

Quick Answer

• Boot checks, door sweeps, and weep lines matter as much as chemistry.
• Sting risk is real for some species—medical questions belong with clinicians.
• Spider ID keeps treatment honest when the pest is actually a web-builder.

Scorpions enter through gaps, ride in on firewood, and shelter under rubble. We agree quoted indoor and perimeter zones, apply label-led treatment where purchased, and spell exclusion and cooperation—not zero-every-stone promises.

Prevention Checklist

• Fit door sweeps and vented weep-hole mesh; seal obvious wall cracks.
• Store firewood off the ground and away from walls; clear renovation rubble.
• Reduce bright white lights at doors or switch to less attractive spectra where practical.
• Shake out boots, towels, and linen left on floors in high-pressure areas.
• Book spider programmes separately when webs—not scorpions—are the driver.
