Brown Marmorated Stink Bugs – The Fall Invaders

It’s that time of year again. The Brown Marmorated Stink Bug is a non-native, invasive species that was introduced to the U.S. in the mid to late 90’s. It is native to China, Japan, Korea and Taiwan. It feeds on tree fruits, small fruits,  legumes, vegetables, and ornamentals.

The problem for most home-owners in our area isn’t the damage to fruits or vegetables. Instead, it’s the nuisance aspect of these foreign invaders, seeking shelter from cool nights in fall and winter. They will congregate by the hundreds and even thousands on the warm side of a house, out-building, even vehicles. When nightfall comes they will search out any opening they can fit into that will allow them to enter the warmer structure. This could be an open window, attic vents, gaps around doors, creases of vinyl siding and more. Once one of them has slipped in it’s only a matter of time before the rest follow. Before you know it you could have a full blown infestation on your hands.
