Behavior and habits
They feed on crops and gardens in summer, then slip into wall voids and attics for winter.
Why stink bugs are a problem
Mostly a smelly nuisance indoors, but heavy populations damage garden produce.
How Antex handles stink bugs
Our technicians confirm the species first, because effective control depends on it. Then we treat the source: nesting sites, harborage, and the routes onto your property, using professional products applied precisely. If pests return between scheduled visits, we'll come back and address the issue at no additional cost.
Prevention tips
Seal fall entry points, especially around window air conditioners and utility lines, and vacuum rather than swat.
