Scorpion Control in Bell County, TX
A close encounter with a scorpion in your home or yard can be a scary moment. When threatened, these creatures can sting, which can be quite painful if you are a victim. If you are concerned about scorpions on your property, contact ABC Home & Commercial Services. Our pros take a full-property approach to scorpion control in Bell County, so you can minimize your exposure to these unwelcome visitors.
ABC takes a full property approach to scorpion control. Scorpions can be difficult to control with pesticides alone — these creatures often hide in piles of rocks or logs outdoors or behind clutter in a home. Our first step is to recommend small changes on your property to eliminate hiding places.
Then, we wapply treatments in the corners of your home and in other common spots where scorpions are typically found, such as your attic. Next, we apply a repellent to the exterior of your home, then treat potential entry points around doors, windows, eaves and any other cracks.
Our thorough treatment plan involves treating out of the way areas on your property, so your ABC pest control specialist may need a few hours to fully and safely complete service.
The ABC Process
1. Contact ABC
When you contact us, we will schedule an inspection to get an understanding of the problem. In some cases, we can give you a quote over the phone.
2. Get An Estimate
If you have an inspection, we will send you a custom treatment plan and estimate afterward. Once we get your approval, we will schedule your treatment.
3. Treatment
We will come to your property and treat for pests in common hiding and nesting areas. Over time, you will start seeing less and less pest activity.
4. Prevention
Customers with our ongoing pest management services will receive periodic retreatments to prevent the return of the most common pests in our area.
The most common species of scorpion throughout Texas is the striped bark scorpion. When one of these creatures feels it is in danger, it will sting in an attempt to protect itself. While most people only have moderate reactions to a striped bark scorpion sting, the impact of a sting can vary greatly. Some scorpions produce higher concentrations of neurotoxins, resulting in a more painful, swollen welt. Additionally, some people are more allergic to these neurotoxins than others and may have a more serious reaction to these stings.

What Our Customers Are Saying
Vonda Kaye Robb
“Vincent Smith with ABC did a repair of my interior wall from my solar system installation. A section of sheetrock had been cut out to complete the electrical connection by my solar installer's electrician. Vincent returned the section of sheetrock that had been removed and properly secured it before making the appropriate repair. After the mud was dry, he applied the knockdown (texturing) and then painted the area with primer. He offered to paint it to match the current paint, but I delined since I will be painting the room a different color within the next few months. Vincent was on time, professional, courteous, and friendly. This was my first experience working with ABC and I would highly recommend them due to my positive experience. Thanks ABC and Vincent!”
