Stink Bug Scoop


Bronze Post Medal for All Time! 170 Posts

To remove stink bugs, use a paper towel cardboard tube that is stapled shut on one end and scoop up these critters and then get rid of them. Squeeze the open end of the tube slightly to flatten it. Sometimes I have to gently bang the tube to get them in but normally they just fall to the bottom. You could use a pencil or something to push them in but I usually just scoop them up.

For the higher places that are hard to reach, you could use a longer tube (aluminum foil, wrapping paper, etc.). I keep a tube for wherever there is an area in our house where they like to hang out, which is normally anywhere warm.

The only good news about these bugs are that they will not breed in your house, they are hibernating until the warm weather. Needless to say, I do not want these uninvited guests visiting me over the winter.

I just pick them up and put them out the door.

That's a great idea i put a little votive candle holder over them and a piece of cardboard underneath (something like catching any type of bug) cause i hate even touching them and take them outside and let them go. I must say this year was a good year only had a few nothing like last year, at least I could open up my window and doors. Thank God.
