WHAT ARE SCORPIONS?

Scorpions are venomous pests that belong to the category Arachnida alongside spiders,ticks, and mites. There are over 1,000 species of scorpions found worldwide. In our area, two of the common species are the brown bark scorpion and the desert hairy scorpion. Scorpions have a segmented body and an extended segment tail that curls up over their body. At the top of their tail may be a curved stinger wont to inject venom into their prey to subdue them after catching them with their large pincers. Scorpions are excellent hunters, although they believe touch and vibrations to hunt because, despite having many eyes, these arachnids have poor vision.

BROWN BARK SCORPIONS

Brown bark scorpions are small with adults growing only about 2 ½ - 3 inches in length. Their body consists of brownish-yellow or tan color and their tails are thinner than other scorpion species.

DESERT HAIRY SCORPIONS

These scorpions are considered a larger species as to the bark scorpion with adults growing between 5 to 7 inches long. They have a yellow-colored body with darker colored markings on their backs. Both their bodies and their tails are covered in small brown hairs.

Are scorpions really dangerous?

Scorpions can deliver excruciating stings and therefore the venom most scorpions produce is as potent as bee or wasp venom. In children and other people with compromised immune systems, their venom could trigger a severe allergy that needs immediate medical attention. it's also critical to know that their venom is potent enough that their stings are often fatal to smaller pets. If scorpions live on your property, call knowledgeable immediately to get rid of them safely.

Why do I have scorpion problems?

Scorpions may take up residence in any yard that gives them suitable sources of shelter and food and water. Scorpions prey on a good sort of prey, including insects, spiders, other scorpions, mice, and even small lizards. Properties with high populations of their preferred food sources will presumably have problems with scorpions.Scorpions can live without food for several weeks or maybe months, but water may be another story as scorpions need high levels of moisture to survive. If you've got areas of standing water, leaky hoses, dripping pipes, and damp spaces around your yard, your house is more likely to draw in scorpions.

Where can I find scorpions?

Scorpions are nocturnal hunters and conceal during the day in dark, cool, quiet places. On the outside of your home, the scorpions hide behind the bark of the trees and other things like the rocks, mulch,woodpiles, and fallen trees in the garden. Moving inside through the spaces under doors, torn windows, cracks within the foundation, or openings of exterior walls, scorpions just hide in places that mimic their outdoor environments like basements, crawl spaces, bathrooms (sinks and tubs), and laundry rooms. it's also important to understand that scorpions tend to travel in groups. If you discover a scorpion in your home or yard, know that there are likely many more lurking around just out of sight.

When my bug spray guy backed out on me, I was in desperate need to find someone to spray my house fast. Rene was available to answer my questions and was quick to come by. Very knowledgeable and thorough, Agro did a great job. The price for services are affordable and definitely lower than the "other" guys. You won't be disappointed!

Rene is TOP NOTCH! We have tried multiple pest control companies and Rene is on time, communicates and never has any issues if there needs to be something taken care of mid service. He is RESEPCTFUL and doesn't make me or my children feel uncomfortable when servicing inside our home. We had a major mosquito problem in which he bombed and took care of with no hesitation. Agro is a solid family business that we love supporting! THANKS AGRO!

Just moved into a new home that had a really bad cricket problem. Called Argo to come out and get the problem resolved. Rene was able to get me scheduled quickly and came out the next day. He hit all of the problem spots and even told me that if it is not getting better in two weeks he would even come out again. This is the type of customer service that I am looking for in a pest control service.

Rene with Agro pest control is awesome! We first called him out to deal with a gopher who was ruining our yard, he solved our gopher problem so we were able to have turf put down. We then started having him spray the house, we hardly ever see bugs and if we do he comes right back out to spray again. He texts me to let me know when he will be by to spray, which is nice, and he is friendly and kind! I highly recommend Agro Pest Control! :)
