Arizona is home to more than 40 species of scorpions. While some are harmless, others can pose a serious health and safety risk. Knowing the types of scorpions found in Arizona, their habits, signs of infestation, and risks associated with them is important for anyone living in the area.

The most prevalent scorpion in Arizona is the bark scorpion. These light tan or yellow-brown scorpions can be found throughout the state, and they have a wide range of habitats, ranging from deserts to mountain ranges. They are also some of the most venomous scorpions in North America and their sting can cause serious pain and swelling.

To help prevent a scorpion infestation in your home, it’s important to pay attention to the signs that you may have an issue. Common signs include seeing live scorpions or their shed exoskeletons, coming across small piles of dirt around doors and windowsills, and finding areas where food sources such as crickets and insects may be present.

In addition to the physical signs, there are also potential health and safety risks associated with living near scorpions. If a person is stung by a bark scorpion, they can experience intense burning pain, swelling, and numbness in their extremities. In some cases, people may experience difficulty breathing or even cardiac arrest if the venom reaches the heart.
