Default F*cking stink bugs

alright so who has these little ******* bugs alllll over the place no matter where you go!?!? Im pretty sure they came here from china (yes another lovely product of china) a few years ago and started out in my general area of philly region. I feel as though ive got my house pretty sealed off and i STILL get a good 30 of them in here a day crawling on the walls. i catch them in packing tap and let them die that way.

anyone have a way to get rid of these things!?!

well they just stink , maybe slight ammonia type smell that comes along with the puss that squirts out them. (thats why you dont crush em, they leave a stain and mess) have to kill them some other way like the op is mentioning..
I would of thought its kind of early for them, but guess not.. best of luck to you for getting rid of them, they are pesky little suckers

They have a pungent sour smell.I believe they are called boxelder bugs.Remove any firewood or loose dunage close to the house as that is there primary food iirc.

It is not early for them. Those bastards survive in pretty cold weather. I find them in my garage hiding in boxes and **** when it is winter time. A little more dormant though.

I don't know what their correct name is, but they are not Boxelder bugs. Boxelders look like large Lightning bugs with red marks on their wings. Their a pain in the *** too.

I give 'em the upside-down can of CO2 treatment...they go permanently dormant after that.
