Scorpion Detectors
Plug them in throughout your home. Get instant alerts when scorpions find their way in.
From Our Customers
We got 2 alerts our first week! These things really work, what a good idea, so easy to use. Much better than sticky traps, thank you so much!
Our 1 year old got stung in a room we never would have expected to find a scorpion. We ordered 5 scorpion detectors the next day.
We can't use glue traps and we don't want to smash scorpion guts into our new carpet, so Scorpion Alert is perfect for us.
How Do Scorpion Detectors Work?
Scorpions are highly evolved survivors — skilled at avoiding detection. But our Scorpion Detectors take advantage of a few key weaknesses: thigmotaxis and fluorescence.
What's Thigmotaxis?
Scorpions hunt by crawling along the edges of your rooms, a behavior known as thigmotaxis. It helps them find hiding spots and navigate in the dark, when they're most active. As they crawl along your baseboards, they'll pass directly beneath Scorpion Detectors plugged into your standard wall outlets.

What's Fluorescence?
When exposed to UV light in the dark, a scorpion's exoskeleton glows. This phenomenon is called fluorescence. When a room gets dark, Scorpion Detectors silently activate discrete low-power UV lights, making scorpions glow as they pass below. If the color and shape of the glow confirm it's a scorpion, you're alerted instantly.

How Do Detectors Send Alerts To My Phone?
Scorpion Detectors connect to your home's Wi-Fi network and send images of detected scorpions to our AI-powered image recognition cloud for confirmation. Once an image is received, it takes about 2 seconds for confirmation and alert delivery. Alerts can be sent to multiple people and devices if you wish.

Are Detectors Childproof?
Absolutely. We understand young children are curious. To protect them, you can optionally screw your Scorpion Detectors into your electrical outlet's existing screw hole.
