Brown Marmorated Stink Bugs

Does anyone else have them?

These bugs are driving me insane!!
It's like a swarm has decided to use my house as its nesting area! It's so gross. I usually see like 4-5 a day..
But last night, I had it!, I was sitting watching tv, and I hear a buzzing sound, and I turn around and there are like 4, sitting on my wall.
I was able to get 3 of them.
I then called my dad in to show him, and he turned over the curtains in my room, and then my parents room, and the living room, and they were on the back of them...We musta got like 25-35 of them. Its real gross. I almost don't even wanna be in my house anymore!

Anyone else have them? As well as a way to get rid of them!!!??

I hate them. They scare me, like every other bug. Bugs shouldn't be that big.

yea man theyre all over the place here too. they like to chill under and behind stuff. sometimes if i flip a poster, there will be a group of them just chillin in there like WTF!

theyre really stupid though and will just let you scoop them up into like a soda bottle or something. i just scoop em up and throw em outside. one time i had one in a bottle, and i smashed the bottle as hard as i could onto a counter top. i looked inside and the stink bugs head just popped right off


oh and does anyone have those big stand up lights that point towards the ceiling? dumb ass stink bugs go sit in mine until they burn and then it stinks for a good 15 minutes and u can see it smoking

omg those little ****ing bastards are all over the place at my apartment. I must have literally killed 2 dozen of them yesterday IN my apartment.

I have no idea how they keep getting in! The worst part is my kitten keeps trying to catch them and in turn HE smells like a stink bug.

In case you don't know what they are and you are reading this thread, they look like this:



And they smell very strongly like this:

Ah! I was about to make a threat about this because its horrible at my house too. The other day I counted 13 in my room, i was so pissed I just left my house and drove around haha. Seriously though, there has to be something we can do because its like some cheesy horror movie and they're invading us.

I haven't really had a problem with these. And my patio faces a good amount of trees pretty close to it so I guess I'm lucky. But I hate the lil bastards too. Hate most bugs, except the furry catepillars. They're ok in my book.

How come they are the only product from China that actually do what their name says??? Why couldn't they be defective and NOT stink.
