Signs of stink bug activity

You can actively look for typical signs of stink bugs in your home, such as their distinctive smell or the presence of live or dead bugs.

• Live Stink Bugs - If you’ve spotted a live stink bug in your home, you may be experiencing an infestation as the brown marmorated stink bug is known to invade structures in large numbers.

• Dead Stink Bugs – It is also common to notice dead stink bugs around frequently used entry points, including doors, window frames, utility pipes and chimneys.

• Foul Odors - True to their name, stink bugs release a foul-smelling odor when threatened or handled. This odorous chemical toxin is a defensive mechanism used primarily to discourage predators - like birds and lizards - from eating them.
