St. George keeps growing out into the desert, and scorpions are part of the deal. Families in brand-new homes in Desert Color and The Ledges call us about them, and so do families on quiet streets near downtown who've lived here for decades.

New Homes, Old Neighbors
Before the houses came, the land around Little Valley, Desert Color, and the Red Hills belonged to scorpions. Building stirs them up, and they look for the nearest dark, cool hiding place. In a new subdivision, that's usually fresh rock landscaping, a block wall along the back of the lot, or a garage door that doesn't quite seal.
Older parts of town have their own version of the problem. Mature yards hold more moisture and more bugs, and that means more food for scorpions.
What a St. George Scorpion Visit Looks Like
Your tech starts outside. They walk the block walls, check the rock beds and planters, and look at the spots where scorpions get in, like weep holes, garage door seals, and gaps around pipes. Then they treat those areas, following each product's label, and point out anything you can do to make your home harder to get into.
Scorpions in St. George stay active most of the year, so protection works best as a plan with visits through the year. If you see a covered pest between visits, we come back the same or next day at no charge.

Questions From St. George Homeowners
Why do newer St. George neighborhoods see so many scorpions?
When a subdivision goes in on open desert, the scorpions that lived there don't leave. They move into the closest shelter, which is often the new rock landscaping, block walls, and garages. Homes on the edge of a development usually see the most activity for the first few years.
Are bark scorpions found in St. George?
Yes. The Arizona bark scorpion lives in the St. George area, along with larger desert species. Bark scorpions are good climbers, so we pay extra attention to walls, eaves, and the gaps around doors and windows.
Do you treat block walls and rock beds?
Yes. Block walls and rock beds are two of the most common places scorpions spend the day in St. George, so they're a regular part of every scorpion treatment we do here.
