Anyone else start seeing stink bugs recently? I first saw them last year in New Hyde Park. Today I saw several on my outside windows. I spray with Raid Bug Barrier but I don't know if that's very effective. Is there anything better to keep them out or kill them?

They have been around for a while. My brother has them in his house, they come through the windows. Even after having an exterminator they are still hard to get rid of. I never seen them, but I heard they really smell bad when you kill them, hence the name stink bug.

when you find them, kill them...thats the only way to get rid of them...
they try and come inside in the fall to escape the cold that will kill them off...non-native and invasive!

I had quite a lot of them all over the back of my house last weekend. They smell like poop when you kill them. I've had a few make it into my house as well. They always manage to find an opening around my window AC units.
