I too recommend "DEMON" (cypermethrin) a close relative of permethrin but way better for spiders and scorpions. I buy it in dry powder form and it is mixed with water and sprayed. It leaves no noticible residue or bad odor and is pretty safe for peple and pets after it dries. Curtain climbing rugrats are safe after it dries.

We have had several scorpions in our new house. Luckily they sometimes get into a sink or the Jacuzzi and can't climb the steep sides to get out (spiders do that too.) Not as bad as the prev post reported for numbers of scorpions but how many does it take to creep you out? For us, not many!

Recall how pest control companies used to put folks on a monthly spray schedule? Now they go for 2-4 months per spray because they have a way better longer lasting and safe agent, DEMON. You can buy it and spray it yourself and save a bundle.
