About Stink Bugs
With more than 200 types of stink bugs in the U.S., there’s no shortage of this common insect. These small, hard-shelled bugs, sometimes called shield bugs due to their distinctive shape, don’t bite, sting or cause interior damage. They do, however, have one trait that makes them unwelcome: an unpleasant odor. What’s worse, once stink bugs are inside, it can be difficult to get rid of them. You might be tempted to crush these insects or vacuum them up in a flash, but unfortunately, doing this releases a fluid from a gland between their legs that creates their trademark odor – and that odor can last longer than you’d expect.
Signs of a Stink Bug Infestation
Stink bugs dislike the cold, and they’ll get inside by any means possible to find a more inviting habitat. Their narrow shape lets them climb through cracks in doors, torn screens, and any other opening around your house. It’s also common for them to get inside by attaching themselves to your pants and shoes.
Once inside, stink bugs can reproduce quickly. Females can lay as many as 30 eggs at a time, each of which will hatch in about four to five days. Because of this, one of the most common signs of a stink bug infestation is a large number of the insects grouped together on walls and around lights. You might also notice damage to plants, dead stink bugs in light fixtures, and, of course, their unpleasant aroma.
