Stink Bug adults emerge from overwintering between May and the beginning of June. They mate and lay eggs from June through September. The eggs hatch into small nymphs that go through five molts between July and September. Adults begin to appear in mid-August to early September. Studies have shown that their flights in search of overwintering sites start in mid-September and peak during the first half of October. NJ homeowners can identify stink bugs by their shield shaped shell and wings. You may even be able to identify a stink bug by its odor, especially if they are congregating in large numbers in your home.

They acquired their name from a natural defense they have which is to release a smell that “stinks”. The stinkbug’s ability to emit a vile odor through holes in its abdomen is a defense mechanism meant to prevent it from being eaten by birds and lizards. However, simply jostling the bug, cornering it, scaring or injuring it, or attempting to remove it from one’s house can “set it off”. Squashing it is a surefire way of expelling its noxious odor. If you have ever handled a stink bug you probably know the smell! They will release it onto most any surface they land and it will last for 6 months or more.

These odors will serve as attractants to other stink bugs which hibernated in the building in the past as well as new stink bugs looking for a good place to reside for the upcoming winter. These odors are the main reason stink bugs return to homes which have a history of infestation so even though they are gone during the summer don’t be surprised when they return next fall.
