I'm starting to see one or two on the screens every day or so.

Back? Did they ever leave? I still get some in our house in Herndon.
You want to know bad smells? I still have a halogen lamp. (I know, I know just too cheap to replace it yet)
Well one of those stink bugs came in down in my basement and I tried to trap it and flush it down the toilet but to no avail so I decided to wait.
Bad choice. He flew into the hot halogen lamp and the resulting smell took a while to get over.

I'd been seeing them on my garden plants since July (as babies).
They've been around again for a while.

I mean back on screens and the outside of the house. The ones we had inside during the colder months disappeared after the onset of warm weather to places in vegetation where they weren't so visible. Now with the cooler weather--and I suppose a declining sun angle--they are starting to look for ways to invade the house again. I'm seeing several traps and sprays in the home improvement stores that allegedly kill them, but I have not heard or read that government agricultural research has found a solution yet, so for now I am dubious.
