Summer Scorpion Season

The only thing that may be tougher than saying “Summer Scorpion Season” 5 times fast is a scorpion itself. These freaky arachnids (same family as spiders!) are having a moment in Austin. This year we’ve received more calls than usual about scorpions being seen inside Austin-area homes. So what’s going on? Scorpions In Austin Scorpions usually stay outside where they hunt for insects and food, but they can get riled up by the weather or…

How To Handle Summer Bugs

As the hot Austin summer continues we are seeing an increase of scorpions into Austin homes along with the typical roach, spider and ant activity. All of these are heading for shelter during this brutal summer. What should you do? First, don’t panic.

They can crawl into a house and will even crawl up into attics and then show up in odd places like sinks,…

In particular, scorpions show up in houses in the rockier hill country areas southwest and west of Austin in higher numbers than in central, north or east Austin.

Scorpions

Scorpions typically stay outside where they hunt for insects and food, but they can get riled up by the weather or predators and head indoors for protection. If it’s simply too cold, too hot or even raining a lot they may look for a better place to lay low. Unfortunately, that better place can be your house. Even more unfortunately, they can really lay low — meaning for months at a time they will stay…
