A Stinky Situation

Asked AnsweredWhat is the best way to get rid of stink bugs? I feel like they have overrun my house and they are driving me crazy.

According to experts, stink bugs don’t like being inside your house any more than you want them there. They are waking up and want to get outside. If you try to vacuum them up, it is likely that you will end up with a nasty smell. Instead try a little soap and water combo. Stink bugs are very sensitive at this time of the year and die easily. The best way to get rid of stink bugs is to be pro active in September and October, when they are trying to get into your house to survive the winter. Fill in cracks around the windows and keep the screens on if you are opening the windows or doors.
