What Attracts Scorpions to My Home?

What Attracts Scorpions to My Home?

The Most Common Scorpion Attractants

Scorpions love:

  • Moisture: leaky pipes, AC condensate, and damp garages
  • Shelter: piles of wood, mulch beds, cluttered sheds
  • Food: insects like crickets, roaches, and spiders

If your yard or home offers any of these, you’re more likely to get a visit.

Even clean, well-maintained homes can attract scorpions if the structure isn’t properly sealed or if insect populations are high.

Why It Matters for Your Home

While bark scorpions are not aggressive, their sting can be painful — and in some cases, dangerous to small children or pets. Even a minor sting can cause swelling, numbness, and discomfort.

More importantly, a scorpion sighting often indicates a larger pest issue. If they’re in your house, they’re likely following the bugs they feed on.

Why Homeland Wildlife Gets It Right

At Homeland Wildlife & Pest Control, we don’t just spray and hope. We target the source — inspecting your home for insect activity, sealing entry points, and applying barrier treatments that keep scorpions out.

We also offer long-term pest control plans that reduce the bugs scorpions eat — cutting off their food supply and giving them a reason to move on.

Seeing Scorpions? Let’s Shut Them Down.

Call Homeland Wildlife & Pest Control for a free inspection. We’ll help you take control of the situation — and keep your home safe, sealed, and scorpion-free.
