Stink Bug Control

When people say stink bugs stink, they don’t just mean it in the literal sense. They’re a major pain to deal with on your property, and unfortunately, their population has been increasing at an alarming speed. While they don’t pose a health risk (except to certain plants), their stench is enough to make one feel unwell regardless.

Due to their vast numbers, stink bug control in Indiana and Michigan is vital. They naturally attract other bugs of the same species, so your stink bug problem can get out of hand quickly. Mosquito Joe of South Bend is happy to help manage the situation. Get in touch with us when you’re ready to beat the stink.

Defense Tips

Stink bugs, like other “perimeter pests,” seek shelter from changing temperatures by invading buildings throughout the year. Also known as shield bugs, stink bugs typically start pestering homeowners in the fall. As temperatures start to cool and days shorten, they start looking for a warm spot to wait out the winter months. They’ll hibernate inside until spring rolls around; at which time you’ll start to notice them again.

Stink bugs are only about a half-inch in size. This means they can easily invade properties in the South Bend, IN area through doorframes, siding, or small holes. There are some things you can do to make it harder for them to gain access, though, some of which include:

  • Seal up any broken windows or screens to keep those pesky stink bugs from sneaking in.

  • Go on a “gap-filling” adventure. Seal off any openings in door or window frames.

  • Investigate your property for any other secret hideouts stink bugs might use to enter (holes, vulnerable spots, etc.)

  • Keep outdoor lighting to a minimum.

    For 8 years we have been battling the mosquito. We have stayed in many beautiful evenings because of the pests. For the first time this year, after one application by Mosquito Joe, we have enjoyed every night this summer sitting on our deck. What a great service!

    It actually works!! I was skeptical at first. The mosquitoes are so bad here, but not since we've had this service. My neighbors also signed up because they noticed that we had no mosquitoes.
