AIR OUT SCORPIONS FAVORITE HIDING PLACES
Scorpions, like many pests, enjoy hiding in dark and damp areas. To avoid them getting too comfortable, air out dark areas regularly. Places such as under the sink and old cardboard boxes are scorpions’ favorite hiding places.

GET RID OF BUGS TO ELIMINATE SCORPIONS
Getting rid of insects in your home is a must. Scorpions eat insects, so if you find cockroaches, termites, or other pests in your home, you need to get rid of them until the scorpions leave.

REMOVE EXCESS MOISTURE
Scorpions seek moisture in residences. Maintain a dry and leak-free environment by keeping flooring, nooks, cupboards, and enclosed spaces dry. Letting water sit in pools or buckets near the outside of your property is not a good idea.

TRIM PALM TREE BARK AND DEAD FRONDS
Scorpions and other insects love to live in palm trees. Scorpions frequently hibernate at the roots of palm tree trunks during the daytime. Scorpions thrive in the cover and water provided by the plant. Cutting this bark will eliminate scorpions’ dwellings.

CLEAN ORGANIC MATERIALS
Scorpions found shelter and nourishment in stacks of organic waste around a backyard. Picking up leaf litter helps keep pests like spiders and scorpions at bay.

APPLY CINNAMON OIL
Cinnamon oil has strong scorpion repellent properties. Scatter cinnamon oil in dark locations, on potted plants, and around floorboards to drive scorpions out.

USE A SCORPION-SPECIFIC PESTICIDE
Mist at a 6-foot broad area across the house’s façade. On the base wall, pour up to a level of 1 foot. Within the house, spray all-around pesticide openings, doors, and corners. The insecticide should be sprayed in basements, garages, and cupboards. The insecticide should be applied to any stacked objects where scorpions could lurk.
