STINKIN' STINK BUGS

grodematers · August 7, 2013

I have brown ones, green ones and the darned leaf footed ones. They are everywhere there is something juicy to stick there straw into. I kill everyone I can catch. They seem to sense me coming now. I'm not really into poisons so I've made a test pouch from tulle fabric.(This is time consuming I might add.) I put the pouch over a nice tomato and so far so good. That is until they lay eggs and the babies get inside the pouch, which seems very possible. I guess I am going to have to build a huge screen room for my tomato patch. Heat, humidity, and bugs. Welcome to Florida I guess.

What are some ways you all deal with stinkbugs ?
