# Scorpion Alert > Scorpion Alert is a smart scorpion detection and alerting system for homeowners in the American Southwest. UV-lit detectors watch for scorpions at night and push alerts to your phone the moment one's spotted. ## Product Scorpion Alert combines plug-in UV-lit hardware detectors, a mobile app (iOS and Android), and a monitoring service. Detectors run at night and use ultraviolet light to reveal scorpions — which fluoresce under UV — while an on-device model classifies what it sees. Confirmed sightings are pushed to the subscriber's phone as an instant alert with a photo, typically within seconds of detection. Service area: currently Arizona, Nevada (US). Expanding to additional Southwest states over time. ## Pricing Scorpion Detectors are $50 each (or $200 for a 5-pack — buy 4, get 1 free). Monitoring is $5/month or $50/year, flat regardless of how many Detectors you add. Alternatively, via /start, Detectors can be provided free as part of an active monitoring subscription (rental model) — subscribers return the hardware if they cancel. ## Key differentiators - Real-time alerts: push notification delivered within seconds of detection, not on a batch schedule. - Photo verification: every alert includes a photo so subscribers can confirm the sighting before responding. - Entry-point identification: repeated alerts at the same Detector reveal where scorpions are getting in, so remediation targets the right wall or threshold. - Works while subscribers sleep: the highest-risk hours for scorpion activity are also when most households aren't actively watching for them. - AI-classified detection: the on-device model rejects non-scorpion UV reflections (cleaning products, some plastics, paper) to reduce false alerts. ## Product pages - [Scorpion Detectors](https://www.scorpionalert.com/scorpion-detectors) - [Scorpion Alerts](https://www.scorpionalert.com/alerts) - [Pricing](https://www.scorpionalert.com/pricing) - [About Us](https://www.scorpionalert.com/about) ## Resources (knowledge base) - [Full index of resources](https://www.scorpionalert.com/resources) - [Best Way to Keep Scorpions Out of Your House](https://www.scorpionalert.com/resources/best-way-to-keep-scorpions-out-of-house) - [Scorpion in Glue Trap: How Long Has It Been There?](https://www.scorpionalert.com/resources/i-caught-a-scorpion-in-a-glue-trap-but-i-dont-know-when-how-can-i-tell-how-long) - [Emotional Toll of Living With Scorpions (Not Crazy)](https://www.scorpionalert.com/resources/the-emotional-toll-of-living-with-scorpions-youre-not-crazy-for-being-afraid) - [What Works Against Scorpions?
