If you live in Sun City, Arizona, you already know… scorpions don’t take vacations. While most pests tend to disappear in the winter, scorpions? Not so much. They’re desert survivors—tough, sneaky, and persistent. And unless you’ve got proper year-round scorpion protection, your home might as well come with a “welcome” mat for these stinging squatters.
So what does your home really need to keep scorpions out in every season? Let’s break it down.
Why Scorpions Keep Showing Up
Ever turn on the bathroom light at night and spot something crawling across the tile? Yep, that’s the stuff of Arizona homeowner nightmares. Scorpions love dark, damp, and cool hiding spots—and they’re not shy about sneaking into places where people live, especially when it’s hot outside or when food gets scarce.
And here’s the kicker: where there’s one scorpion, there’s usually more. They don’t travel solo for long.
That’s why year-round scorpion protection isn’t just a good idea—it’s essential. It’s not just about killing what you see… It’s about keeping them from coming back.
Spring: The Calm Before the Swarm
Spring may feel fresh and breezy, but it’s the kickoff to scorpion season. As temperatures rise, scorpions emerge from their winter hideouts—think block walls, attics, and that pile of firewood you haven’t moved in months.
This is when prevention counts. Sealing up entry points, treating the perimeter, and inspecting your yard (especially near rocks and woodpiles) is key. Green Machine Pest Control offers a free inspection to pinpoint these hotspots early before they turn into breeding grounds.
Summer: Scorpion Central
Ah, summer… pool parties, BBQs, and—unfortunately—peak scorpion activity. When the temps hit triple digits, scorpions start crawling into cooler spaces—like your home.
This is where year-round scorpion protection pays off. We ramp up treatments in the summer to create an invisible barrier around your home. It’s like putting up a big neon sign that says, “Nope. Not welcome here.”
Don’t worry, it’s safe for your pets and kids—but deadly to pests.
Fall: Sneaky Season
Just because things cool off a bit doesn’t mean you’re in the clear. Fall is when scorpions start scouting for winter shelter. And guess what looks super cozy to them? Your warm garage… the space behind your fridge… the boxes in your closet.
Yeah, gross.
This is the time to double down—seal cracks, replace weather stripping, and check inside those storage areas. Green Machine doesn’t just treat the problem—we also help you figure out why they’re getting in to begin with.
Winter: Hidden, Not Gone
People often let their guard down in the winter, thinking scorpions have packed their bags. But not so fast—they’re still lurking, just a little quieter. They go dormant in hidden spots and wait for their next chance to strike.
That’s why year-round scorpion protection includes winter treatments too. We make sure those pests don’t get comfortable—or worse, start a whole new generation before spring.
Scorpions are like unwanted house guests… ignore them, and they’ll settle in.
Why DIY Isn’t Enough
Sure, you can sprinkle diatomaceous earth and seal some cracks on your own. But scorpions are crafty. If there’s a dime-sized gap in your home, they’ll find it. Plus, you’re not just fighting scorpions—you’re battling the other pests they feed on.
Green Machine offers year-round scorpion protection that tackles both the scorpions and the bugs they eat. No more endless guessing games or wasted money on store-bought sprays that barely slow them down.
