How Did I Get Stink Bugs?

Every summer adult stink bugs look for a home for the winter. They start to gather on the outsides of buildings in the summer, then as winter arrives they move inside the home through any crack or opening they can find. They spend all winter hidden inside walls, attics, and crawl spaces. Then when spring arrives, the stink bugs crawl out and often into your living space. Once inside they tend to gather around windows or on walls, looking for a way out.

Why Is It So Difficult To Remove Stink Bugs?

As their namesake implies, stink bugs emit a terrible odor when they are killed. Many homeowners try to vacuum them up only to find that their entire vacuum reeks of stink bugs. They are also tricky to remove because they remain in hiding throughout the entire winter season. It takes expert pest control services to remove these smelly culprits.
