The Dangers Of Bark Scorpions On Your Queen Creek Property

It’s commonly known that scorpions have stingers. Common in arid areas, scorpions are known for their distinct tail with a stinger at the end of it. Not only do they stink to kill their prey, but they also sting as a defense mechanism upon feeling threatened. The good thing is that most scorpion species aren’t a real threat; one of them, however, poses a real danger to property owners throughout Queen Creek.

The Arizona Bark Scorpion is the most dangerous scorpion species that you should be aware of. Their stings can have fatal repercussions if not tended to immediately by medical professionals. The Arizona bark scorpion is yellowish-brown in color and small in size. They measure around two to three inches, and they are better climbers than any other scorpion species. That means they may show up in an unexpected place that other species may not be able to access.

When the Arizona bark scorpion injects neurotoxic venom through its sting, it can cause serious consequences and a deadly reaction. To give you some comfort, you should know that they usually stay out of the way, remaining in their hiding areas, only to emerge when disturbed. Needless to say, never provoke or bother an Arizona bark scorpion. The best way to deal with scorpions is to call in the experts. The team at Scorpion Shield provides comprehensive scorpion control and prevention services you can count on. Contact us today to get started.
