A brown marmorated stink bug is native to East Asia and was first noticed in the United States in the late 1990s. It will attack a large variety of plants including many fruits and vegetables. It leaves small necrotic patches on any plant matte it eats, rendering produce inedible. Homeowners likely will notice an invasion before anyone else, because the brown marmorated stink bug will spend the winter in homes and other human-made structures.

About Stink Bugs in the Houston Area
Stink bugs are a seasonal nuisance that shows up in force as the weather cools. The brown marmorated stink bug — a shield-shaped insect named for the foul odor it releases when crushed — is native to East Asia and has spread across the United States. In the Houston area, homeowners notice them most in fall, when large numbers gather on warm, sunny exterior walls and work their way indoors to overwinter.
Stink bugs do not bite, sting, breed indoors, or damage your home, but they are a genuine nuisance in numbers. Once inside, they cluster in attics, wall voids, and window frames and release their signature odor when disturbed or vacuumed. Outdoors, they can also damage garden plants and fruit.
The key to stink bug control is exclusion — sealing the gaps they use to get inside — combined with exterior treatment before they enter. Sasquatch Pest Control handles both.
Signs of a Stink Bug Problem
Stink bugs are most obvious in fall and again in spring. Look for:
Shield-shaped, brownish bugs clustering on sunny exterior walls in fall.
Stink bugs around windows, doors, and light fixtures as they try to get in.
Bugs appearing indoors on warm winter days or in early spring.
A strong, unpleasant odor when a bug is crushed or disturbed.
Clusters in attics, wall voids, and around window and door frames.
Damage to garden vegetables and fruit outdoors.
Why Stink Bug Control Matters
Stink bugs are harmless to people and structures — they do not bite, sting, or cause damage inside the home. The problem is purely one of numbers and nuisance: large overwintering populations are unpleasant, and their odor makes them difficult to remove without spreading the smell.
Because they enter in large numbers through tiny gaps, once inside the walls they are very hard to treat directly. Preventing entry with exclusion and a timely exterior treatment is far more effective than fighting them indoors.

How to Prevent Stink Bugs
Keep stink bugs from moving in for the winter:
Seal cracks and gaps around windows, doors, siding, vents, and utility penetrations.
Repair or replace damaged window and door screens.
Install door sweeps and weatherstripping.
Reduce exterior lighting at night, which attracts them.
Vacuum up indoor stink bugs (and empty the vacuum outdoors) rather than crushing them.
Schedule exterior treatment in early fall, before they gather.
Frequently Asked Questions About Stink Bugs
Are stink bugs harmful?
No. Stink bugs do not bite, sting, breed indoors, or damage your home. They are strictly a nuisance pest, though large numbers and their odor make them very unwelcome.
Why do stink bugs come inside in the fall?
As temperatures drop, they look for a warm, protected place to overwinter and work their way inside through small gaps around windows, siding, and utility openings.
Why should I not crush stink bugs?
Crushing or startling them releases their foul odor. It is better to vacuum them up and empty the vacuum outside, or prevent entry in the first place.
How do I keep stink bugs out of my house?
Exclusion is key — sealing the gaps they use — combined with a well-timed exterior treatment in early fall. Sasquatch Pest Control handles both.
Where do stink bugs hide inside?
They cluster in attics, wall voids, window and door frames, and sunny rooms, then reappear on warm winter days and in early spring.
How much does stink bug control cost?
It depends on the size of your home and exclusion work needed. Sasquatch Pest Control offers a free inspection and honest, up-front pricing.
