Why choose Forterra for scorpions in Aubrey
Subdivisions around Aubrey are cutting into rocky brush and grazing land that striped bark scorpions already called home, and building there left the animals in place while it stripped their shelter. They move into slab edges, fresh planting and the pallets builders leave behind. Forterra screens open weep holes on the new masonry, recommends what to clear, and seals the house with the Zero Gap System™. Licensed TPCL #850046, with the money-back guarantee.

Why Scorpions Thrive in Aubrey
Scorpion calls are more common out of the Aubrey office than the metro ones, and the reason is simply the ground. Open pasture, rock, brush piles and undisturbed material around outbuildings all suit striped bark scorpions, with no neighboring yard to slow them before they reach the house. Unscreened weep holes on new construction hand them an easy way inside.
Sealing those openings is the core of the job, and on a house only a few years old it is quick work that lasts. Around the property we point out the harborage worth clearing, stacked timber, sheet material lying flat, and stone against the foundation. On acreage the aim is honestly to keep them out of the house rather than off the land, and we would rather say that than imply otherwise.

How Our Exterminators Treat Scorpions in Aubrey
Pasture, rock and brush piles suit striped bark scorpions, and nothing but open ground separates that habitat from your foundation. New brick with open weep holes then makes entry easy.
Remove cover
Lose the cover, lose the scorpions.
A scorpion walks high on its legs and shrugs off surface sprays that kill other pests. What it cannot survive is losing its cover, so we identify and treat rock borders, wood piles and clutter, and you get the short list worth clearing.
Starve hunters
A yard that stops feeding them stops keeping them.
Scorpions came for the crickets and roaches. The quarterly residential pest treatment removes that prey base, and a yard that stops feeding scorpions stops keeping them.
Seal entries
Weep holes and door gaps stop being a way to your bathtub.
Weep holes, door sweeps, attic vents and foundation gaps are how they end up in a bathtub. Zero Gap exclusion closes the routes, so summer heat pushes them somewhere else.
Where Scorpions Get Into Aubrey Homes
Scorpions coming off open ground climb new brick and slip under the door threshold on whichever side of an Aubrey home faces the field.
- 01
Weep holes
Scorpion-sized by design and at harborage height, the single most common entry we seal in DFW.
- 02
Garage door bottom
The corner gap plus stored clutter equals daytime shelter one door from the house.
- 03
Soffit gaps
Climbers reach the roofline by wall and tree; attic entries drop them into closets and tubs.
- 04
HVAC penetrations
Cool air leaking from line-set holes is a beacon in a Texas drought.
- 05
Gable vents
Torn screens read as cave entrances to a climbing scorpion. A torn screen is worth replacing, and the inspection points every one out.
- 06
Utility penetrations
Slab-level gaps stay damp; scorpions follow plumbing lines to bathrooms above.

Aubrey Scorpion Control FAQ
Below are answers on scorpions in a new house, entry points, night sightings, surface sprays and sting risk.
They were living on that land before the subdivision existed. Construction removed their cover rather than the animals themselves, so they take up residence along the slab edge, in new planting and under anything stacked at a wall. A spotless new house deters them not at all. Around Aubrey this is one of the commonest calls from households in their first two years.
Through openings a credit card could not enter. On an Aubrey build the routes are weep holes in new brick, the slab expansion joint, an unsealed threshold at the garage and the penetrations where services cross a wall. None of that counts as damage. It is simply how the builder put the wall together, and closing it is what lasts.
Because that is when they hunt. Through daylight they press into cool, tight harborage where nothing sprayed on a surface will reach them, then come out after dark. It also means the one you found in the hallway is a poor guide to how many are on the property, which is why the exterior work matters more than what happens indoors.
No, and relying on it is why people keep finding them. A residual treatment only works if a scorpion chooses to walk across it, and they spend most of their time in voids and under objects instead. Around Aubrey the work that changes things is treating the harborage directly and sealing the gaps, with surface treatment as a supporting measure.
Stacked firewood, spare landscaping stone, pallets left after construction and anything else sitting flat against an exterior wall. On a new Aubrey property those are the best shelter available now that the open ground has gone. Lifting them off the wall and off the ground makes a genuine difference between visits, and it makes the treatment work better.
The striped bark scorpion found across this region delivers a painful sting rather than a medically serious one for most healthy adults, though reactions vary and a sting to a child or anyone with allergies warrants medical advice. That is a reason to reduce the population rather than to panic. Most households find the fear diminishes once the sightings stop.
That depends on the opening, since each one needs a different repair, and weep holes get screening so the wall still breathes. The aim is closure that survives, because a scorpion needs very little and will keep using any gap still open.
Generally two weeks or so after the harborage work and the sealing, though it can feel worse for a few days first as they abandon treated shelter and move. That is progress rather than failure. If you are still finding them indoors a month on, that points to an opening missed, and the return visit for it is free.
