Scorpions own the night.
We take it back.
Scorpions hunt after dark, when the desert cools and the East Valley settles in. We hunt with science: ACE-certified entomologists, blacklight inspections, targeted treatments, and sealing that keeps the night outside where it belongs.

Spotted one after dark?
The night shift
starts with a call.
Tell Barbara what you are seeing and where. An entomologist plans the visit, the blacklight finds the rest, and your home gets quiet again. Call for a quote: every home and every infestation is different, so pricing is quoted per job.
The method
The hunt,
step by step.
No blanket spraying and hoping. Every job follows the same four-move sequence, run by people who actually studied entomology.
-
Inspect
Every job starts with a real inspection, including UV blacklight checks after dark for scorpion activity. We find where pests live, travel, and get in before anything is applied.
-
Plan
An entomologist builds the treatment plan around your home and your pests: which species, which pressure, which program fits. You hear the whole plan before we start.
-
Treat
Targeted treatments at the source, inside and out, plus sealing of the gaps and entry points pests use to move in. The eco-friendly approach means precision, not a chemical fog.
-
Follow up
Scheduled follow-up visits and ongoing monitoring keep score all year, so nothing rebuilds quietly between appointments.

Straight answers
Asked before every first visit.
-
Yes. We take an eco-friendly approach to every treatment, and your technician explains exactly what was applied and any precautions before leaving your home. If you have questions first, call and Barbara will walk you through them.
-
It means targeted, not blanket. We inspect first, treat at the source, and seal entry points, so product goes where the pests are and nowhere else. Precision beats a chemical fog every time.
-
Scorpions glow under ultraviolet light. After dark, our techs sweep your yard, block walls, and landscaping with a UV blacklight, and every glowing scorpion gets found and handled. It is the most honest scorpion survey there is.
-
In scorpion country the pressure never really stops, so most customers choose Monthly, Bi-Monthly, or Quarterly programs. A one-time service handles the problem in front of you, and custom 3-visit prepaid plans cover the in-between.
