Kateri89 Posted September 20, 2013 Share Posted September 20, 2013 There are stinkbugs everywhere outside my apartment...in the last hour I have killed at least 14 or 15 of them...there has to be a nest nearby but what can I do??? I've been killing them with windex because from what I was to understand, the only way you'll attract more stinkbugs is if you crush them. I just spray them with windex and then they pass out and die but is this attracting stinkbugs or is it just stinkbug season??? I believe it's just the season because when I first noticed them on my window, there were 6 of them. I hadn't killed any yet so I just think they're everywhere.

Help please :covereyes: What floor are you on? If you can get outside spray the window perimeter with soapy water Killing stink bugs outside will keep them away. Vaccuming them up is the best way to tackle them if they get inside. (do this with a washable canister vac, or a bagged vac that you can throw out the bag to) If all else fails, pesticides. Call your landlord, any infestation is a health code violation. And it's September...stink bugs are not know for liking this weather....they like spring.
