How To Screen Vents
Screen vents to control scorpions, and other pests! Vents entering your home from the outside often provide entrance for scorpions and other pests. Scorpions and other pests have no trouble at all climbing stucco walls, and vents. Scorpions are one of the biggest culprits entering homes through vents in the Phoenix Valley, but other pests also enter through exterior vents like: Bees, wasps, rats, flies, mosquitoes, etc.
Screening vents can easily be done by homeowners, or we’ll do the dirty work for you, for $15 per vent.
How To Screen Vents
Step 1. Identify vents in your home that have an exterior entrance.
Step 2. Remove Vent Covers
Step 3. Cut screening material to fit.
Step 4. Secure screen material on the interior of vent cover. Duct tape was used here.
Step 5. Replace Vent cover! Make sure vent cover fits tightly.

I have a major scorpion problem, as most of us do in AZ. I was wondering if you, as a company do the actual screening of the vents. Of so, what do you charge?

Hi Sandra! Scorpions are mostly a problem with vents that enter the home from the exterior. They may enter an HVAC vent, but do not get into the house that way.
Sandra says
I am curious about screening AC vents. Seems I have scorpions in bedroom under that could have fallen down from vent space. I heard that scorpions can get inside walls and other structure to end up in such areas. But you would think air pushing out would not be their favorite place.
