get the cardboard tube from paper towels, get a plastic bag, and use a rubberband to put the bag on the tube. You can put rubbing alcohol in the bag. You can use the end of the tube to slide the bug off of a wall, ceiling, etc The bug will slide down the tube into the bag and can be easily disposed of in the trash.

Heres another that I found worked real well...If the stink bugs are coming thru your attic, hang three or four of those sticky fly strips around the light in the attic and leave the light on 24-7. The stink bugs are attracted to the light and and will fly around it an eventually get stuck on the strips. I got a couple of hundred of them over the last 6 months that would had been in the house.

But when they get stuck, do they release their stink?

Mostly good advice here, except you do NOT want to crush them. The release of their odor attracts more and does NOT "warn" others to stay away.

I wrote an entire guide on how to get rid of stink bugs from your home and garden. It can be downloaded from http://www.getridofstinkbugsnow.com

Thanks.

We can atest to the fact of squishing them...it brings droves of them!!!! Winter time they apparently hybernate or just lay dormant till they freeze to death or until heat is present then "BAMMM!!!!" They're all over the place!!! We have a cedar sided house and they seem to hit us harder than a vinyl sided or brick house. They ougtta draw and quarter the person responsible for letting these varments loose!!!!!! Signed"Completely Covered in Verona Virginia"

I would have to agree with the other comments above about squashing stink bugs... Bad idea.... You don't want to squash them indoors OR outdoors. That stench that they release (which smells like cilantro) can actually attract MORE stink bugs, as opposed to acting as a deterrent to warn others to keep away!

Plus that stench can be pretty hard to get rid of, if it gets on your skin, your clothes, or your property.

There are numerous ways how to kill stink bugs and keep them away from your home, some of which the article above does an excellent job of explaining.

Check out the website http://www.howtokillstinkbugs.com. They've got tons of useful information, videos and guides on how to deal with stink bugs... and even educational information resources about them.... everything you have never wanted to know about stink bugs!

Why would we all of a sudden have a sink bug in Syracuse in the middle of winter, inside?

FYI.... stink bugs can hurt you!!! They actually have a tiny beak. It is sharp and very sturdy. They will impale you with it and then break it off. It looks like a tiny splinter. This happened to my husband. The stink bug broke its beak off in his palm. His hand instantly got very red and had a burning feeling. I had to remove the beak like you would a splinter.

Sure would have been nice for someone to have posted "get rid of stink bugs" advice for free. But everyone's out to make a buck, or in this case - $25! Sheesh

I mix Dawn (blue color only, don't ask me why) and white vinegar. Mix your summer batch now and let it ferment . Put in spray bottle and it will bring them down and prevent others.

does anyone know if they mate? or lay eggs etc? i occassionally find one or two in odd areas of the house then find very small bugs flying around house same area have found the stink bugs which is why I am wondering this...

We are being inundated with them in Central Texas. I just vacc'd up about 30 of them and already see 6 more I missed. We have NO fruit trees in our yard. We cannot understand why they keep coming in, or where they are coming from (well, we know they are coming from under the front door-but there where from outside????). My vac is starting to stink bad. We don't even want to be in our living room at this point as they are taking over.

So far, the only thing that seems to hold them off a day or so is Listerine.

HELP!!?!?!

i use a peice of toilet paper to pick up the bug put into toilet and flush 10 min later as it quits moving but am goin to try the blue dawn and viniger in spray bottle for my tomatoes this year and replace the boarded up basment windows this spring more light in basement and hope less bugs next year :]

Just throw a show at it

Don't squish them on wallpaper , their body fluid takes the ink off. We learned the hard way on brand new paper.

I found that a pole lamp with multiple lights work great. I purchased a pole lamp from Lowes which had five different lights with globes. If you point all five globes toward the ceiling and turn the lamp on they will go to the bulb and die. You then just dump the globes every couple of days. No stink no mess.

These nasty Stink bugs remind me ov an oversized Tic. I'm so.... grossed out. There's nothing like taking a shower. And Bam there's a stink bug above U n the skylight. Those Little PERVERTS!!! Lol

Our house is infested with the little bugs the house smells and I end up stepping on two stink bugs a day this sucks I tried every one of those things but nothing happens im in a living nightmare!!!! :-(

I flush so many bugs on a daily basis my water bill went up. I think it is biological warfare.

Raid fumigator is the bet thing I've found to kill the bugs in your home. It won't be a total kill but it will help a lot.
Covered up in Virginia.

built my house in 1997 - in 1998 the exterior got covered one day with lady bugs - every spring they come back and i find hundreds in the house - starting two years ago - stink bugs started - so this year - i bought "Home Defense" (since no kids or pets) I sprayed around the exterior and interior of all windows - sprayed the baseboards inside - sprayed the basement where the wood meets the foundation - and then sprayed up under the vinyl siding at the foundation - so far the only critters that i've had this spring have been dead ones that lay on the window sills

Dust Busters are a way to go too! Make sure you empty it outside before hanging it back in the charger!

Dryer sheets between your window and screen helps I don't think the like the smell I use bounce dryer sheets

We grab them with TOILET PAPER AND SQUISH THEM, THEN TOSS EM OR FLUSH EM. sEE ONE EVERY COUPLE OF DAYS OR SO. tHEY REALLY DO LOOK LIKE TICKS IN THOSE SMALLER PICTURES.

For this post, I’ll be talking about how I spoof the content of any app on Facebook. I’m also going to talk about a few of the “unfix”: bug found in Facebook (some of which still work). These bugs provide attackers with avenues to inject external links or images to a wall (newsfeed) post that appear to come from trustworthy apps like Soundcloud or Candy Crush
