AZ Pest Control in October
Temperatures are cooling down causing a few different Phoenix pest control problems. Cooler night temperatures encourage pests to find their way inside homes for warmth!
In the Phoenix Valley we’re so glad we live in a world where there are Octobers! October means a break from the heat, and getting outside a little more to enjoy neighborhood parks, and hiking trails. The downside to all this goodness is that Arizona Bark Scorpions are gathering to nest in crevices and voids!
Arizona Bark Scorpions Nests
Usually we’re hunting bark scorpions with a black lights and pliers at night… But, bark scorpions are actually gathering themselves this time of year! Scorpions are usually solitary creatures, but that all changes starting in October when temperatures drop at night through fall and winter. As night temps go below 70 in Phoenix Valley areas, Arizona Bark Scorpions use their pheromones and make vibrations to find each other! Scorpions attract other scorpions and congregate in large groups to nest till next spring. Scorpion nests are NOT something you want around your home, because they all come out when it warms back up!
Groups of 20-30 Bark scorpions will nest together in one small area during the winter… Giving Bark Scorpions a jump start on the spring mating season! This is just ONE way scorpion infestations start.
Prevent Scorpion Infestations
Prevent next years scorpion infestations during the fall and winter! Scorpion nests are NOT something you want around your home or yard. Although scorpion nests usually go unnoticed during the winter, they cause what seems like a springtime scorpion explosion in just a couple short months.
According to entomologists, Scorpions mate during late spring and summer and their gestational period takes several months. This means that scorpions give birth to a brood of “scorplings” during fall and winter nesting months. You can prevent scorpion nests and infestations around your home by having Scorpion Control services during the fall and winter months.!
