Are scorpions dangerous?
Scorpions can be a scary sight when you see them in your home while you are walking around barefoot! Unfortunately, this is a very common pest in the desert of Arizona, and they may find their way inside your house. With our pest control services, your live scorpion sitings should drop to near zero. To read up more about the types of scorpions, you can find them on the Arizona State Parks website. The most common one found in homes is the Arizona Bark Scorpion. These insects like to find shelter during the day to cool off, and they feed off other insects and spiders. A good preventative measure to scorpions is our standard pest control service.
What is Our Process for Scorpion Treatment?
SCORPIONS ARE COVERED IN OUR STANDARD PEST CONTROL SERVICE AGREEMENT, NO ADDITIONAL CHARGE.
First – Inspection
We will perform a property inspection, during which we will locate places on your property where they are drawn to hide or hang out. After we have identified where they are, then we will identify the species that we are dealing with. Knowing the species tells us what methods will be effective in treating the infestation. After seeing them, we will also determine the severity of the issue.
Second – Plan
Once we have a full grasp of the infestation, we will create a plan with you to control and eliminate them. Each plan will consist of some of the following elements:
- Pesticides, pest deterrents, eliminating the source of standing water
- Sticky traps
- Dusting with chemicals that prevent them from coming around
- Seal any cracks in the foundation wall that are an apparent problem
- Non-toxic chemicals to treat the problem
Third – Eliminate
We then schedule the first treatment, which could even be that very same day. Future treatments will also be scheduled at this same time, and we make sure that it will fit with your schedule. Let the elimination begin!
Fourth – Monitor
During our subsequent visits, we check our progress and make the necessary adjustments to ensure proper pest control for your environment. If we identify further issues, we will treat them, and notify you of anything worth mentioning.
Warranty
Our warranty for general pest control is that we will control the population of the pests on our list to an extent that you should not see pests crawling around alive. You may find dead pests from time to time, and that means the pest control services are working. We will consult with you and provide you with the information you need to assist with this prevention as much as possible. If you happen to see any live pets, reach out and schedule a re-service as soon as possible, free of charge.

I had a serious fire ant problem in my vegetable garden on the side of my house that other pest control companies could not solve without using toxic. Dave showed up and knew exactly what to do. Within a week almost all of the fire ants were gone. Thank you Dave!
I recently switched to Proudfit Pest Control because I kept seeing bugs crawling around my house. Dave walked me through everything he was going to to protect my home and I was very impressed. After his first treatment, I am now bug free!
When Dave came to treat my home, he also removed all the cobwebs from my eaves and used a blower to clean off my front porch. He consistently goes above and beyond while doing his service.
I was concerned about toxic chemicals with my pets and young kids at my home. Proudfit Pest Control was able to treat my home and yard with child and pet friendly chemicals, so no harm will come to them, but it still treated the bugs. I was impressed.
