Barrier sprays do almost nothing against them, and I've tried them all. Even hitting them square-on with powerful products often doesn't kill them, at least not for a while. In fact, these poisons usually just kill the spiders and gekkos, and the scorpions come back stronger with no natural predators around. Whenever possible I like to let living things live, but nothing has stopped these creatures from coming into my home to seek refuge from the Texas heat. I'm tired of my kids getting stung trying to get dressed, my dogs getting stung trying to protect us, and guests being scared half out of their wits on a regular basis. A few weeks ago my son's young friend had a scorpion fall on his back in the middle of the night. A week before that my dog was stung and went into respiratory distress. Evidently he's become allergic. Now, after 8 years, this is really war. And this flashlight is my high-tech weaponry. This flashlight makes scorpions light up bright green in the night. In combo with some ultra-fashionable orange uv/blue-blocking glasses, they'll light up in the daytime as well, though not as brightly. Armed with the killing tool of my choice, I fire this baby up and sweep the indoors; looking in closets, under sofas, behind everything. I've found a good number in the house this way. But the real "fun" is outdoors. The first night this light helped me find and kill at least 50! The flashlight has strong uv output, and very little visible light so it works very well for this purpose. I can sweep an area quickly, and the scorpions light up very well. I can be quite thorough without spending the whole night. Using this light and the information gained over multiple nights, I have been able to identify where the beasts tend to be concentrated, and, with patience, where they hide. Whenever possible I kill the scorpions manually, my favorite tool being a BBQ spatula, or if they are high up or in a tight spot I use a petroleum-based spray to kill them (eventually). With the spray I also target their hiding spots, like weep holes, the expansion joints of the driveway, the crack in the back step, etc.. I don't spray everything because I don't want to kill the geckos that hunt them. In this manner I have made a huge impact on their population, and I'm finding fewer and fewer each night. Before the war began I was seeing an average of four a day indoors. It's been a few days now since I've seen one in the house. Eventually I foresee reducing the hunts to once every two weeks during their season, and experiencing significant relief from this plague we've been enduring for so long. I'm really happy with my purchase, and the results I've already seen. The flashlight is well made, it feels heavy and solid, and puts out a lot of uv. The battery compartment is a little different. Be very careful to install the batteries correctly, they go in in odd directions, so mind the polarity markings. As far as battery life is concerned, I'm pleased there too. We haven't had to change them yet, and this thing has seen many hours of use since it arrived. Especially once I figured out I could use it to find previously unknown doggie indiscretions and teach my son about the importance of good aim. I'm really happy I bought this, and happy too that I found a good one, because the reviews of some other brands weren't that encouraging. Hope this helps. Review: I should just return it NOW! - Ordered and quickly received the light and in good condition. I put the 3 AA batteries in and switched it on. Something must’ve been wrong with it because it wasn’t working properly. I think they got stuff on the lens or something because everywhere I pointed it I was seeing spots on everything. It’s funny how they got the dumb light to show spots that seem to be no higher than 18” or so. I kept looking for the spots on the lens but I couldn’t see anything. Hmmm…. How do they get it to do that? Incredible! So I assume the light is defective in some way. I know it can’t be the 8 kitties that are running around the house. They are good little angels and never do anything wrong so it can’t be them. All kidding aside, the light works all too well and the result is more shocking than I had expected. I’m not a happy camper with the results but not at the light. It definitely makes a statement about piss poor pussycats. So I suggest that after purchasing this light you may want to consider buying a steam cleaner to douche your home! May I suggest a “Neat” little steamer like the one we bought from Duprey via desertcart and we love to use, but now it’s going to get some more serious usage today and for the next few days. Yuck! This light is going to show up a whole new world of things when you switch it on. BEWARE….. I WARN YOU! You can never un-see what the light reveals. In closing, I will have to say that this light far exceeded my expectations of how bright it is and the range of the light. For the price I don’t think I could have found a more perfect lighting tool for revealing the unimaginable?? ## Features - Efficient Pet Urine & Stain Detector Blacklight Flashlight: The upgraded ultraviolet light LED can show food stains and pet urine stains on rugs, carpets more clearly, Escolite 51 UV light LED beam covers a larger area, enabling you to locate the affected areas effectively.

It does. Keep in mind that if you are simply looking in a house that has light coming in from windows - even if your lights in the house are off, it won't be dark enough. Unless you can block all light, wait until nighttime, close your blinds / curtains to block street lights and such, turn off all lights in the area to get it as dark as possible and turn it on. There were obvious dog pee stains in areas that I wasn't aware of before, urine stains in the bathroom that I thought was clean. **Q: Is this light good for use in hotel rooms for detecting "nasty" stains ??** A: On "The Doctor's" TV show, the GYN/OB doctor was emphatic that despite the fact that washing your underwear (male & female) in very hot water is the only safe way to wash them. I am a washing guru and got sick of the elastic dying in all of our expensive briefs and panties, I looked for a better way to get them clean without destroying them. I already knew that Oxi-clean pre-wash was the very best pre-wash for areas that have any residue left by a human. The peroxide in the Oxi-clean may not remove old stains in cotton briefs, but it kills the germs and the product that was left on the clothes. That includes the residue left by all adults in their underwear, blood, perspiration and I am certain any "nasty" material. FYI, if the item is white, spraying extra 100% peroxide will strengthen the pre-wash. I won't explain how I did the various tests, but using a black light showed any "discharges", stool racing strips in young boy's briefs, and blood stains, so that I knew exactly where to spray each item. After washing in warm water, the black light showed that the residues I found before washing and using the pre-wash were gone. Keep in mind however, that there are a lot of other things that "glow" on clothes. Certain clothes detergents leave tiny white spots on some clothes, and I have found numerous other things can leave glowing spots, but it is easy to tell the difference between the odd item glowing and the "nasties" that you would be looking for. Some Housekeeping Supervisors use black lights to check sheets in a room that has "supposedly" been cleaned. It is an easy way to see if the top sheet has simply been switched and placed as the bottom sheet, and a new one is placed on top. I will always bring my black light with me to hotels or timeshares. Have great vacations! P.S. When you read the information from Manufacturer near the bottom of the page that fully describes the light, it lists "semen" as something it shows you. **Q: can this light detect blood ?** A: The direct answer is "No" it cannot detect blood because blood is not by itself fluoresce, in order to detect blood a material that reacts to properties in the blood can be added to the suspected blood sample, thus making the blood become fluoresce by the reaction to the added material and become detectable. Fluids that are detected by this light are seminal fluid, saliva and urine stains. Also, certain narcotics will fluoresce as will bone and teeth fragments, some spiders, scorpions, quinine in tonic water, Vitamin A and the B vitamins thiamine, niacin, and riboflavin Chlorophyll makes plants green, but it fluoresces a blood red color, there is a process to separate the material then it can be seen. antifreeze glows black. Minerals and gemstones like fluorite, calcite, gypsum, ruby, talc, opal, agate, quartz, and amber. Money glows under black light, Passports and most state ID's do as well. whiteners in laundry detergent. There are many more items that glow when exposed to black or ultraviolet light. Here is a fun list of other materials that glow Petroleum jelly, such as Vaseline, glows a bright blue. uranium glass or vaseline glass, rock salt, the fungus that causes Athlete's Foot (supposedly glows orange), turmeric, olive oil, canola oil, some postage stamps, highlighter pens, honey, ketchup, cotton balls, pipe cleaners. Hope this answers your questions and more. **Q: If used it to harden clear liquid bondic & needing to look at the liquid to insure I'm aiming at the right place, would I need eye protection?** A: It took me some time to find the wavelength required to cure the adhesive. This flashlight emits UV at 395 nM which should work. I found one reference to the required wavelength to cure UV bonding agents (385 nM - 405 nM). The flashlight emits bright UV light when the batteries are fully charged but the time needed to cure the bondic is so quick that you should be fine. Some other purchasers of this flashlight do recommend having UV glasses on when using this light for long period. Sometimes to error on the side of caution is best. You will find on the flashlight page under the "Customers Who Bought This Item Also Bought" heading that many have purchased UV protection glasses also. here is a great link to a study on UV and the eyes https://www.case.edu/ehs/Training/UV/UVsafety.pdf ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Scorpion hunter *by J***Y on August 14, 2013* We have a lot of scorpions here and they are tough.

It works extremely well! It easily revealed old, dried urine stains on both my cream and brown colored carpeting, as well as my limestone floors. The instructions recommend using it in a dark room, but I found it worked very well even during the day with natural sunlight coming through my windows. The stains it detected were all dry dog urine that was over 4 months old. My dog has been wearing belly bands, so I hadn’t realized there were still old accidents I had missed. I even did the sniff test, and they definitely had been urine stains. Cleaned the areas with carpet cleaner and sprayed an enzymatic. 3 AA batteries- not included. I highly recommend this product. ## Frequently Bought Together - ESCO LITE Escolite UV Flashlight Black Light, 51 LED 395 nM Ultraviolet Blacklight Detector for Dog Urine, Pet Stains and Bed Bug - Rocco & Roxie Stain & Odor Eliminator for Strong Odor, 32oz Enzyme Pet Odor Eliminator for Home, Carpet Stain Remover for Cats & Dog Pee, Enzymatic Cat Urine Destroyer, Carpet Cleaner Spray --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.no/products/1617996-esco-lite-black-light-for-pet-urine-detection-uv-flashlight](https://www.desertcart.no/products/1617996-esco-lite-black-light-for-pet-urine-detection-uv-flashlight) --- *Product available on Desertcart Norway* *Store origin: NO* *Last updated: 2026-09-23*
