Scorpions are more than just a nuisance—they pose a real threat with their painful stings and ability to hide in dark, undisturbed spaces. These nocturnal pests often enter homes in search of shelter, making it essential to address infestations quickly. If scorpions are invading your home, Critter Stop’s Highland Park scorpion control services provide expert removal and long-term prevention to keep your home safe.
While scorpions play a role in managing insect populations, their presence indoors can lead to serious problems, including:
✔ Painful Stings – Some species, such as the striped bark scorpion, have venomous stings that cause pain, swelling, and allergic reactions.
✔ Hidden Infestations – Scorpions hide in closets, garages, attics, and even shoes, making them difficult to detect.
✔ Rapid Reproduction – Female scorpions can give birth to dozens of offspring, quickly increasing the infestation.
✔ Signs of Other Pest Problems – Scorpions hunt insects like crickets, cockroaches, and spiders, which may indicate a larger pest issue.
Because scorpions are nocturnal, they often go unnoticed until their numbers grow. Watch for these warning signs:
✔ Frequent Sightings – Seeing scorpions inside your home or around your yard is a clear sign of an infestation.
✔ Dark Hiding Spots – Scorpions prefer secluded areas like under furniture, in storage spaces, and behind appliances.
✔ Unexplained Stings – If you or a family member gets stung unexpectedly, there could be scorpions nearby.
✔ Increased Insect Activity – A rise in crickets, spiders, or cockroaches can attract scorpions looking for food.
At Critter Stop, we take a comprehensive approach to eliminate scorpions and prevent them from coming back.
Our experts conduct a full assessment of your home to locate:
✔ Scorpion nesting areas
✔ Entry points where they are getting inside
✔ Conditions attracting scorpions, such as moisture or insect activity

Many homeowners attempt DIY solutions, but these methods rarely provide lasting results. Here’s why:
Store-Bought Sprays Are Ineffective – Many over-the-counter treatments only repel scorpions rather than eliminate them.
Scorpions Hide in Hard-to-Reach Places – Without professional knowledge, it’s difficult to locate and eliminate all nesting sites.
Increased Risk of Stings – Handling scorpions improperly can lead to dangerous stings.
Infestations Keep Returning – Without professional treatment and entry-point sealing, scorpions often come back.

✔ Seal Cracks & Gaps – Use caulk to close small openings in walls, windows, doors, and foundations.
✔ Control Other Pests – Reducing the population of crickets, roaches, and spiders removes scorpions’ food source.
