Spring Stink Bug Infestation Facts

In September 2011, after several years of research and development, nth Solutions introduced The Original Indoor Stink Bug Trap – the first in its line of stink bug control products.

Pennsylvania is ground zero for the Brown Marmorated Stink Bug, an invasive species from Asia.  But stink bugs aren’t just hanging out in Pennsylvania.  Instead, stink bugs are rapidly migrating across the country, eager to snack on the country’s rich agriculture.  They become an indoor pest as they invade homes and businesses first in the fall when they look to overwinter (sort of like hibernating), and again in the spring when they trek back outside.

In the last few weeks, stink bugs have started to come out of overwintering in the Mid-Atlantic region.  They’ve become a nuisance to homeowners as they make their way outside to feed, mate and lay eggs.  And the media have increasingly covered the stink bug infestation as consumers get more irritated by the invasive pest.

What’s a homeowner to do?  The easiest, no-gimmick way to get rid of stink bugs is to place an Original Indoor Stink Bug Trap where you see the most stink bugs inside.  Attics are often a prime hiding place for the bugs, too.  You can see our easy setup video here.
Of course, if you prefer communing with the smelly, shield-shaped intruders, feel free to “be one with nature” and practice stink bug yoga.
