They are creepy, they are crawly, they are smelly…they are stink bugs! We all know them and we all despise them. As summer fades to fall, stink bugs will soon be journeying into warm places such as your home to settle in before winter.

Stink bugs are overwintering pests, meaning they ride out the winter inside a warm structure and then reemerge in the spring. The key to avoiding stink bugs inside your home is to prevent them from entering in the fall.

One way to help prevent stink bugs from getting inside is checking your home for gaps and cracks (think window screens, window and door frames, soffits, etc.) and sealing any that you find. Another way to help prevent stink bugs is with seasonal treatments by your local pest control expert.

If stink bugs get inside before you deploy these prevention strategies, there is hope. A safe and effective stink bug control program is an excellent way to evict these unwanted guests.
