Scorpions are not just frightening they can also be dangerous. While most scorpion stings are not life-threatening, some species found in Kenya can deliver a painful sting that may cause swelling, allergic reactions, or even medical emergencies, especially in children or pets.
At Rafiki Pest Control, we provide professional scorpion control services tailored to homes, lodges, and businesses across Kenya. Our approach combines safety, precision, and experience to ensure these nocturnal pests are removed and kept away for good.
Why Worry About Scorpions?
- They hide during the day and come out at night to hunt
- Found in dry, dark places shoes, clothing, under stones, cracks, and basements
- A sting can cause pain, swelling, numbness, or allergic reactions
- Dangerous for children, elderly people, and those with allergies
- Their presence often means there’s also a food source like insects or spiders
How Do Scorpions Enter Your Home?
- Cracks and gaps in walls, floors, and ceilings
- Open doors, windows, or ventilation systems
- Piles of firewood, stones, or debris near your house
- Gaps around plumbing, electrical wiring, or air vents
- They may also enter homes seeking shelter during the dry season
