Integrated Pest Management and Sting Bugs

Stink bugs will enter your home as it gets cold. Prevention is the best method of dealing with Stink Bugs. Stink bugs will enter under siding, around door and window frames, utility pipes, chimneys, attic vents, under fascia, and crawl spaces.

Spray the exterior south and west walls before they enter. Once they enter , they go into a state of hibernation, but will not reproduce. As the spring rolls around or you get an early winter, they may appear. You can remove them with a vacuum cleaner, but the sink bugs will cause the vacuum cleaner to smell for a while.
