So what do you do for stink bug control? While stink bug traps come in several forms, a homemade trap can be made from an aluminum pan and some common dish soap. Fill the pan most of the way with water, add a couple of teaspoons of the detergent to make some soapy water and add an incandescent light to attract them to their doom.

Stink bugs have few natural enemies in North America although parasitoid wasps do like to lay their eggs on them and even bats and spiders will munch a few. They're an agricultural pest that are a scourge to soy beans and even sweet corn and need to be eliminated.

Most of all, they are a freaky bit of the invasive insect world that get into everything,

I like tossing them in the fire; their little legs curl up while their bodies crisp up. :)

When had one in the kitchen tonight. The dog ate it.
