Scorpion Control in Bulverde & the Texas Hill Country
If you live in the Texas Hill Country, chances are you have encountered a scorpion — or found one in your shoe, under your bed, or crawling across your bathroom floor. Scorpions are a real and persistent threat in our area, and their stings can be painful and dangerous, especially for children and pets.
Authority Pest Protection specializes in targeted scorpion control for homes and businesses throughout Bulverde, Timberwood Park, Stone Oak, Spring Branch, and surrounding communities.
​
Why Scorpions Are Such a Problem in the Hill Country
The rocky, cedar-heavy terrain of the Hill Country is prime scorpion habitat. Striped bark scorpions — the most common species in Texas — are expert climbers and can squeeze through gaps as thin as a credit card. They hide in:
-
Rock walls, limestone outcroppings, and gravel landscaping
-
Mulch beds, wood piles, and leaf debris
-
Gaps in weep holes, door frames, and utility penetrations
-
Garages, attics, and cluttered storage areas
-
Inside walls and under floorboards

Our Scorpion Treatment Approach
Effective scorpion control requires more than just spraying a perimeter. Our technicians take a comprehensive approach that targets scorpions where they live, breed, and enter your home.
​
Exterior Barrier Treatment
We apply a professional-grade residual treatment around your home's foundation, entry points, weep holes, and landscape features where scorpions commonly hide. This creates a contact-kill barrier that eliminates scorpions before they get inside.
​
Interior Treatment
For homes with active interior scorpion activity, we treat baseboards, closets, garages, and other interior harborage areas. We use products that are effective against scorpions but safe for your family and pets.
​
Exclusion Recommendations
We also identify and recommend fixes for structural gaps and entry points that allow scorpions inside — like weatherstripping, door sweeps, and caulking around pipes and utility lines.
​
Scorpion Control as Part of a Subscription Plan
Scorpion control is most effective when it is consistent. Our Pro and Elite subscription plans include regular exterior and interior treatments throughout the year, ensuring that the protective barrier around your home is always active. Every plan includes our free revisit guarantee — if scorpions come back between scheduled visits, we return at no charge.
​
Is a Scorpion Sting Dangerous?
Most scorpion stings in Texas cause pain and localized swelling similar to a bee sting. However, stings can be more serious for young children, elderly individuals, and those with allergies. We always recommend seeking medical attention if symptoms are severe or worsening.
