Background: Just moved to Queen Creek, AZ. We have 1.25 acres and 50+ citrus trees on our lot. The house was vacant for at least a month before we moved in. It's super hot and we're in the beginning of the heat of the summer. Long-short, perfect scenario for scorpions. We saw a decent sized lobster on the final walk thru so figured there was a lot more where that came from.

I got ahead of the game and purchased Cy-Kick after reading raving reviews. I'm starting with 5 stars and will let you know how things progress. I'm hoping it does the job.

Day 1: spotted two scorpions during the day while moving before spraying Cy-Kick. I used a no stain spot kill scorpion spray and hammacher schlemner bug vac to dispose to avoid splattering scorpion guts on my carpet/walls. After moving most of our belongings in this house I started spraying Cy-Kick. I sprayed all along the interior along the baseboards, about two feet up the walls, the window sills and the vents. I sprayed the exterior as well, all the way around, with a heavier spray at the base of the house (corner where house meets the ground - they hide in these crevices). It was business as usual until nightime.

Night 1: As you know, scorpions hunt at night. In the house we saw about 4 large scorpions. It was no fun! 3 of them were on the ground and moving pretty slow. 1 was dead on the ground. And for the first time we saw one roach YUCK! Outside, roaches and scorpions were pretty much scurrying everywhere. Some where dead and others were moving around albeit slowly. We used a bug spray that kills on contact to make sure anything that was moving around was dead.

Here's my theory. When you spray this stuff, expect to see a bunch of bug activity, like they all come out of hiding as if their house or hiding spots have become uninhabitable. My hope is that tomorrow we don't see as much or any activity meaning they're dead. I will let you know.

Day 2: We've seen 2 scorpions today. One was bigger and the common places we've seen them are in closets, bathrooms, close to the baseboards. The babies are harder to see but we have a monster mag blacklight that makes for easier hunting (a necessary tool). The ones we found both weren't moving fast but we're alive. We have a detached garage and a shed. Saw scorpions last night while hunting on the lower part of the outside wall. They seem to hang out where the wall meets the ground and maybe 2-4 feet up. My approach is to follow up with Cy-Kick spray next day in places I see scorpions hanging out.

Night 2: No scorpions in the house after thorough sweep with blacklight in entire house. Relief! No activity on the south, west of the house. I did see a bunch of activity on the south garage/shed walls. But that seems to fit the bill, when you spray they come out of hiding and move slowly. As for the North and South sides of the house I had quite a bit of activity on the north wall and along the retention bricks at the edge of the patio. Small section though, spot killed what I could find and they were moving a little faster than the others. Tomorrow I will spray that final section with Cy Kick and hopefully we won't find any others lurking inside our right outside our house moving foward.

This is where I say good bye folks. I'm assuming that this stuff works based on my experience so far. If for some reason, we start finding them again in the house you will hear from me. I'm relieved! Just know that when you first spray a lot of bugs including scorpions are gonna come out of hiding and you will have a bug apocalypse within 24 hrs where you spray. You're gonna see scorpions immediately after spraying. If they're moving slow you know it's working. If you have questions please feel free to ping me. Otherwise, be cool - be safe - be scorpion free

I bought to get rid of crickets, roaches and scorpions that started appearing in our backyard rockbed once the AZ temps got over 90. The day after my first application, I walked out to what looked like a war zone of dead crickets, roaches and scorpions. After first night though, roaches and scorpions came back in yard and didn't seem affected by it any longer.

Since it was my first time applying pesticide, I figured I didn't apply enough so two weeks after first application I applied again. This time I sprayed all the way to the top of the block fence, in the entire rock bed, sprayed about 6 feet up my house and 6 feet on ground out from my house.

It's been about a week since then, and it seems like the second application has knocked out a large deal of the scorpion and roaches. If I see either now, the look dead or about to die.

I'm about to order again since I've gone through entire bottle already, but believe it is worth it.

Born and raised in Arizona. Some neighborhoods get scorpions (like where I currently live in the North Valley) and other neighborhoods not so many. This stuff is legit. I spray once a month outside in the summer And one good spray during the winter. I might get 1 per month inside in the summer...But that's down from infestation of 3 per week. I have no kids or pets so I don't really know how it affects them but I have had no negative reactions to it. If you are trying to kill scorpions this is it. the 1 per month I find inside is usually dead or close to dying. I'll say it again, this stuff is legit.

Folks, if you have scorpions this is the ONLY product you should buy. In AZ on a mountain side, scorpions are a way of life. This product helps keep the population under control and doesn't bother the snakes or rabbits or other small desert critters.

WORKS SO WELL! I had developed the name "scorpion queen" after documenting how many scorpions I was finding in and around my house. I have gotten rid of over 100 over the last 10 months...(Arizona...hah) After using this spray just one time I have noticed that no more bugs or scorpions get in my house. If they do then they are already sick, but that was during the week after I sprayed. It's been almost a month and nothing since then. My paranoia has gone down but I still look around my house at night. No bugs!
