Prepare Yourself Early for the Annual Stinkbug Invasion


It’s hot outside now, but the temperatures will start cooling down again before you know it. That means you might see stinkbugs crawling around your NJ home. Find out more about these pests, so you can hire Colts Neck pest control services to deal with them if necessary.

Searching for Shelter

As fall and winter approach, stinkbugs start looking for safe and warm places to stay until the following spring. This can lead them into your home, where they’ll find hidden places to shelter while it’s cold out. When these pests find a convenient place to stay, they go into a hibernation state until the weather warms up again.

Are Stinkbugs Dangerous?

Is it dangerous to have stinkbugs in your home? The good news is that these pests don’t bite, sting, ruin food, cause structural damage or spread any diseases. Instead, these pests are considered more of a nuisance than a threat. Crushing them releases an unpleasant odor that gives them their name. Vacuuming them up and emptying the bag right away is a better way to deal with these pests, but it’s best to leave stinkbug infestations to the professionals to ensure that they’re gone for good.
