Do I Have a Scorpion Infestation?
When determining if you have a scorpion infestation on your Bryan/College Station property, you must first understand what scorpions look like and their habits.
Scorpions are arachnids. They are a close relative of ticks, mites and spiders. Characterized by their elongated bodies, they also have a segmented tail that is tipped with a venomous stinger.
Scorpion Appearance
Scorpions have a long slender body with a 5-segmented tail that can be arched over the back.
The size of scorpions varies between the species. However, most measure about 2 inches when fully grown. Colors range between yellow, blue, reddish brown and black.
Scorpion Habits
The following are a few common habits of scorpions:
- Scorpions are nocturnal, predatory animals that feed on various insects, spiders, centipedes and other scorpions.
- Occasionally, large scorpions will feed on vertebrates, such as smaller lizards, snakes and mice. They locate prey primarily by sensing vibrations.
- Scorpions have venom to defend themselves. However, they fall prey to many types of creatures. These inlcude centipedes, tarantulas, insectivorous lizards, birds (especially owls), and mammals (including shrews, grasshopper mice, bats).
- Scorpions typically feed on insects and spiders and can survive without feeding for six months.
- During the daytime, scorpions hide under stones, in piles of rocks, in cracks in masonry, in wood piles and under the bark of trees.
- Scorpions enter structures seeking water and shelter.
