Help! We're under attack!

I friggin' hate stink bugs.  They're very common around here at this time of year and they're horrible.  Luckily for us, the church has a contract with an exterminating company and today's the day.  *cackles maniacally at the stink bugs' impending death*

We keep ducks and chickens and the bugs don't stand a chance. Plus we get eggs and meat.

Aardy, I don't want to rain on your parade, but from what I've heard, exterminators aren't that effective against stink bugs.

I hope I'm wrong. I hate them, too!

I just take 'em and put 'em back outside when I find 'em inside.

They are pretty easy to transport. Just slide a notebook sized sheet of paper in front of them, and let them crawl on it... then take the paper outside and flick the paper under where they are with your free hand... the bug goes flying in the direction of the flick (hopefully towards a plant or something!)

I used to do that, too, Richard, then I realized I was setting them free to reproduce. Now I deposit them in a plastic disposable container, put the lid on, stick it in the freezer and bid them nighty-night.

We have seen a lot of those coming in too. They are another import from Asia and do a lot of agricultural damage, so killing them is probably the way to go. The grand daddy longlegs have been boldly walking in too. Those I take back outside, because they eat other insects.

If the extermination doesn't work well, could you try glue traps?

I woke up one night, shortly after we bought our house, to the smell of something nasty. A stink bug had landed on our bed and I must have rolled over on it. It was so grossdoh! I was scared to go to sleep for weeks lol. We had a problem with them the entire time we lived there. I don't miss them. I hate bugs.

 EmmDee, I'm quite sure they just go to sleep and just don't wake up. Really. I'm positive.

Pretty much.

It is better than the way I kill spiders sometimes. If there is one in or near the sink or tub I turn the water all the way to hot, scalding and drowning it. I like to think of it as justifiable homicide. I use the hot water because I don't want to just wash it down the drain, what if it crawls back up seeking revenge?

No! No! NO! Don't kill spiders! Spiders are good bugs...they eat other bad bugs!

Don't hate the spiders!

@*&!#$%$%&^%$*@$ exterminator rescheduled on me again! He was supposed to be here at 11am, but he didn't call until almost 3pm to cancel. Granted, he was cancelling because his previous client had a bedbug infestation and he didn't want to risk introducing them to our home, but you couldn't call earlier? Like when you realized you weren't going to make it to our house on time?

I appreciate his consideration, but these stinkbugs are getting cheeky! I've been dive-bombed twice tonight!

That gives me an idea, 2S! If he cancels again, I'll round up all the bugs and make them into a pie. I'll give it to him and tell him it's mincemeat. *resumes cackling maniacally*
