eimilesmom Posted September 19, 2010 Share Posted September 19, 2010 So I was leaving my house today and put my hand on the handrail right on a stink bug and it stinked me. Then, 5 minutes ago one apparently fell off my ceiling and landed in my hair. This video makes me feel better!!!

cando Posted September 19, 2010 Share Posted September 19, 2010 Sorry but that's so funny & only because it didn't happen to me! I haven't seen a stink bug for years----hope that just didn't jinx me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eimilesmom Posted September 19, 2010 Author Share Posted September 19, 2010 We are infested, but we also have 10 foot ceilings and they know I am short!! :tant::tant: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cando Posted September 19, 2010 Share Posted September 19, 2010 I remember as a child my mom would tell us to keep away from them in a panicky voice. Never heard of a problem with infestation with those guys. Look up diatomaceous earth on the internet. Non toxic & kills critters. PM me as I have some if you want to try it & you don't live far from DuBois area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Petee Posted September 19, 2010 Share Posted September 19, 2010 I think I would classify that video in with kids who pull the legs or wings off of bugs just to see what they will do. Those kids need some adult supervision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bon Posted September 19, 2010 Share Posted September 19, 2010 Think I read somewhere that there is a stinkbug invasion this fall. Kinda like those asian ladybugs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steelnut Posted October 21, 2010 Share Posted October 21, 2010 I hope and pray they don't come any farther north. I can't stand the Asian lady bugs, crunchy little so and so's. They're bad enough to put up with, I don't want the stink bugs, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Petee Posted October 21, 2010 Share Posted October 21, 2010 My daughter lives in the middle of huge apple orchards near Gettysburg so she has a LOT of the alien Stinkbugs. I spent some time swatting them when she wasn't looking. She would have rescued them but these critters are invaders and need their populations severely controlled. They can seriously damage fruit crops. Once we got home I found four in the van, one in my clothes from the trip and tonight we found one on my husband's hat. Have no mercy, kill them.

Gilb3314 Posted October 21, 2010 Share Posted October 21, 2010 When we went camping the week-end of the 25th of Sesptember we stayed at a state Park in SE Pa and they were every where. I've heard that they are bad this fall. I get the Asian beetles here, but they weren't as bad this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
