Common Stink Bug Questions

How do I get rid of Stink Bugs?

Getting rid of stink bugs can be a difficult task as they are commonly found on both the interior and exterior of properties. American Pest is your one-stop company for eradication of stink bug problems. Our highly trained pest control professionals will make a thorough inspection of your property and then create a custom designed solution to rid you of stink bugs in the quickest, safest manner possible.

Can I do it myself?

Stink bug control using Do-It-Yourself methods does not prove to be effective in many cases. Locating the source of the infestation indoors and out is the key – something which American Pest’s experienced pest control professionals are trained to do.

Is the treatment safe?

Every product used by American Pest has undergone extensive testing by the EPA and has been registered for pest control use. Only after it has been EPA approved do we use and apply it following a strict set of guidelines. This means you can be assured it will not cause any harm to humans or pets.

How can I prevent this in the future?

Adult stink bugs enter homes and other buildings in the fall, looking for a good spot to spend the winter. They can be mechanically excluded from homes and buildings by sealing cracks and other openings. Typical entry points include cracks and crevices around window and door trim, window-mounted air conditioners, exhaust fans, and chimneys. Cracks or other openings should be sealed with caulk to prevent entry by the adult stink bugs.  If you have done this and you are still having problems with stink bugs, contact American Pest today!
