Question

3 in the living room & 2 in the Bedroom, (no water source in either. there is sure no moist place in my closet, or around and under the couch. Were I live its approx. 115 in the shade. (no joke). Also I thought that scorpions developed pigment before even leaving the mothers back. All five of these are White White. See through white, and they move faster than those little feild mice. I know that the female has approx 25 babies and for these 5 to be found on opposite sides of the house. I think I have at least another 15 more to go. (well 16 the last 1 got away to fast) I have baby kittens & dont want them to get hurt, A couple of the kittens have already tried to play with that scorpion. I don't want them poisened either,, So Any help would be much apreciated. Q&A Does baking soda repel them at all? or was that ants? Are they Deadly? How do I locate all of them and kill them or can I repell them with something from around the house thats not toxic to babies human or feline?

Answer 1

Very dangerous. You should check all the shoes in the household. I would hire a extermination buisness.

Answer 2

When I lived in AZ, I learned there is only one deadly scorpion and it's native to AZ. It's big and black and knobby throughout all his joints. The little spidery-bodied ones sting and it's a painful sting.

I had friends that had ducks around their house and the ducks did a very good job. I answered a similar scorpion question for a guy in Texas. Two other people gave their replies from online research. You can view those answers on Yahoo! Q&A at the list below. Good luck!

Answer 3

I sympathize with your desire to have a baby yet that's a bad, undesirable undesirable concept! Legally: no longer in basic terms can your chum get fired if caught, in maximum places that's a legal. and you're an adjunct. till you opt to have a baby in penitentiary, overlook it. Biologically: there's a reason in vitro fertilization is a low yield proposition: The situations do no longer want impregnation. through fact of this it many times takes extremely some tries. enable's settle for it - the "many times occurring" way of fertilization many times takes a a number of tries (on conventional). Ethically: people who donate sperm achieve this decrease than very strict situations and decrease than the insurance that their genetic textile would be used properly. they have a precise to have that expectation fulfilled. And what could you tell your baby? That they have been the made from against the regulation? Please re-evaluate.

Answer 4

I would use Home Defense and spray along all doorways and around your baseboards to keep them out. The ones that are inside - scoop 'em up and throw them back outside.

Answer 5

Scorpion
better known predators and one of the most feared by humans. Scorpions are great predators and should be left alone. If found inside remove to outside if possible. Locate torn screens, openings in walls, other ways they can get inside the house. Use soap mixtures to spray around inside the house. Use any natural Peppermint soap or Orange TKO

Scorpion Control Methods

Management: If live striped scorpions are encountered in a home or a commercial facility, it is likely that they have already infested the attic, walls, or crawl space. Appropriate treatments for these areas are required.

Inside the structure:
• Dusting or fogging of attic: Use dusts or foggers labeled for scorpions in attics or drop ceilings. Dusts have a longer residual. When treating, focus toward the eaves of homes as the Striped Scorpion tends to nest in these areas. In drop ceilings evidence of infestation may be evident by scorpion carcasses in light covers. In most drop ceilings, dusts will not be appropriate as the dust often falls or filters through spaces around tiles and lights.
• Use dust or fogger in crawl spaces or voids under structures.
• Use dust or crack and crevice aerosols in wall voids. Access walls via electrical outlets (always use caution to avoid shock) or any other penetration into voids.
• Set out glue traps along walls as monitoring and control devices.
• Spot treating corners and areas where scorpions can hide will help reduce their populations. Use TalstarOne™ multi-insecticide in a 0.06% suspension. Apply with a compressed air sprayer using a coarse, low-pressure spray not to exceed 25 PSI. Repeat applications should be limited to no more than once per seven days.

Outside the structure:
Once the inside is thoroughly treated with the above recommendations, protect the structure from reinfestation with an exterior barrier
• Perimeter treatment: Treat a 6-to-10-foot-wide band out from the exterior perimeter of structure using TalstarOne™ multi-insecticide in sufficient water (up to 10 gallons per 1000 square feet) to insure 1 fluid ounce of concentrate is applied per 1000 square feet. Focus on entry points: around windows and doors, along foundations, along eaves (remember this scorpion is a very strong climber) or other potential points of entry. Also treat soil adjacent to structure in a 6- to-10-foot-wide band around the house. When infestations are heavy or scorpions within structures have been difficult to control, treat the entire yard treat with TalstarOne™ multi-insecticide at the 0.06% rate (1 oz/gallon). A surfactant added to the spray solution can greatly increase coverage and can help in control.
• Identify areas near the structure where scorpions may congregate: Under piles of wood or debris, under stones and landscape timbers. Eliminate as many of these potential harborages as possible. Store firewood off of the ground.
• Incorporate exclusion techniques: caulking entry points, weather stripping around doors and windows, and using copper wool to plug weep holes.
• Treat the exterior perimeter with a four-to-six-foot-wide broadcast band of Talstar® PL granular insecticide or Talstar® EZ granular insecticide at a rate of 2.3 pounds per 1000 square feet. Place granules in flowerbeds and areas conducive to moisture and organic matter. This will reduce populations of insects and arachnids and therefore reduce the scorpions’ food source. If scorpion pressure is high, treat the whole yard at a broadcast rate of 2.3 pounds per 1000 square feet.
