Ridding your home of scorpions and keeping them away is a very involved process. Don’t think that you can keep scorpions out just by sealing your home.
While you might be able to keep out your average thief, scorpions are far more cunning and persistent intruders. They are fantastic climbers, for instance, and can scale brick and wood easily.

Which also means, your closed door may very well not be enough to prevent them from getting through and the warm refuge of your home will provide a constant allure.
While we generally advise against a DIY approach for scorpion control, there are some methods you can use to decrease the odds of a scorpion infestation even before your Gilbert pest control company gets there.

Another great DIY tactic to eliminate scorpions from your property is by reducing hiding spots and some of their favorite habitats. These include, but are not limited to:
