Why Stink Bugs Invade Ohio Homes

Brown marmorated stink bugs are an invasive species that have spread rapidly across Ohio in the past decade. They don’t bite or sting, but they release a strong odor when crushed and can become a major nuisance once they get inside.

Why they enter homes:


  • Seeking warmth and shelter as the weather cools

  • Attracted to sun-facing windows, siding, and walls

  • Find gaps in siding, trim, rooflines, and screens

  • Release aggregation pheromones, attracting more bugs

In addition to stink bugs, we often see increased activity from other seasonal invaders in the same period, including:


  • Ladybugs

  • Boxelder bugs

  • Cluster flies

  • Spiders and centipedes

  • Rodents, seeking food and nesting spots

Our Stink Bug Treatment Process

Stink bugs can be challenging to remove once they’ve made it inside. That's why our two-part seasonal treatment strategy focuses on both elimination and prevention.

  • 1. Exterior Barrier Treatment

    In early fall, we apply a targeted treatment around windows, doors, siding, soffits, and vents to stop stink bugs before they enter. This is your first and best line of defense.

  • 2. Interior Spot Treatment (if needed)

    If bugs are already indoors, we treat active harboring sites such as attics, basements, drop ceilings, and wall voids with low-odor, non-staining solutions.

  • 3. Crack & Gap Sealing Recommendations

    We inspect for and point out the gaps stink bugs use to get inside, recommending or providing basic exclusion services as needed.

  • 4. Follow-Up & Prevention Advice

    We’ll help you schedule a seasonal maintenance plan to stay protected year-round.

Fall Pest Control That Stops Other Seasonal Invaders Too

Our fall pest control services don’t stop with stink bugs. As outdoor temperatures drop, many pests try to move indoors — and we stop them in their tracks.

With one treatment plan, we help prevent:



  • Rodents nesting in attics and basements

  • Spiders and centipedes hiding in crawlspaces

  • Flies entering through cracks or chimneys

  • Ladybugs and boxelder bugs clustering on siding

This is especially important for homes with:


  • Wood or vinyl siding

  • Poorly sealed windows or garage doors

  • Attics and basements with limited insulation

  • Homes near woods, farmland, or open fields

Common Bugs Found in Ohio Homes During Fall & Winter

  • Ladybugs – Red or orange with black spots; harmless but form clusters

  • Boxelder Bugs – Black with orange markings; tend to gather near doors and windows

  • Cluster Flies – Larger than houseflies; often found in upper floors or attics
