Scorpion Control Services in Princeton, Texas
Long-Term Protection for Allen, Plano, Frisco, and McKinney Homes
Effective scorpion control is essential for homeowners in the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex, where these resilient arachnids are known to seek shelter in and around residential properties. Scorpions can be intimidating pests due to their painful stings and preference for hiding in dark, secluded spaces. The licensed and insured pest control professionals at Stellar Pest and Wildlife can protect your home and family with tailored scorpion control solutions that address our community’s unique challenges.
The Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex is home to multiple scorpion species, including:
- The striped bark scorpion. This is the most common scorpion in the area. It’s known for its yellowish-tan color and distinct dark stripes along its back.
- The Texas cave scorpion. These scorpions prefer rocky terrains and caves but can occasionally wander into manufactured structures.
- The lesser stripetail scorpion. They’re similar to the striped bark scorpion but often found in grasslands and prairies.
- The giant hairy scorpion. While not as common, this larger species can sometimes be spotted near woodlands and gardens.

What Draws Scorpions to Your Property?
Scorpions are primarily drawn to properties that offer them shelter, food, and water. They are nocturnal creatures, so they seek out environments that provide protection from the daytime heat and places where prey, such as insects, is abundant. Understanding what attracts scorpions to your home is the first step in preventing an infestation.
Scorpions are attracted to:
- Moisture sources. Scorpions are often attracted to properties with water sources like leaking pipes, dripping hoses, or pooled water. Eliminating excess moisture can reduce their appeal.
- Clutter and debris. Piles of wood, rocks, or other debris provide excellent hiding spots where scorpions can seek shelter during the day. Keeping your yard free of unnecessary clutter is essential.
- Untrimmed vegetation. Overgrown grass, shrubs, and plants offer coverage for scorpions while they hunt or rest. Regularly trimming your landscaping can make your property less inviting.
