What about scorpions?
Arizona bark scorpions are the common one in the Valley, and they climb walls and squeeze through tiny gaps. They are active at night, and they glow under a black light, which is how people find them. If you or a family member is stung, call poison control or your doctor right away, and take young children and older adults seriously.
Help prevent them by sealing gaps around doors and windows, fixing weatherstripping, clearing wood piles and debris near the house, and keeping trees and shrubs trimmed back from the walls. A pest company can tell you what they see around your home.
Why do bugs show up after monsoon storms?
Rain and humidity drive insects to look for dry, shaded spots, and your house fits the bill. Roaches, crickets and other pests move indoors. Check around plumbing, garage doors and drains, and keep standing water from collecting in pots or low spots, where mosquitoes breed.
