Stink bugs are friendly critters. Try having a bald faced hornet's nest on your garage door all summer!

The hornets will hibernate in the ground soon and you can move the nest to your man cave for display. Gary

See just a few every year. Not real common here. Gary

We use to have a stink bug problem(4 years ago) then I bought one of these...The first year I killed 200 plus ,the second year 100, last year and this year, none.I think they don't travel far off their turf so once their eliminated from an area the problem is solved.

Just sprinkle some diatomaceous earth in the ant track, takes care of the issue.

I've seen only a few this year. It's just been too warm still by me. Yesterday 87 degrees, when historical average is 70 on this day. Once or if it cools down they usually are more active.

I think it's more likely that word has spread in the stink bug community that there is a serial killer in the area, and that they are deadly with a salty weapon.

The trick with shooting these stink bugs w/this salt gun is their Top shell is like armor .You have to get in close to these bugs and hit them from the side,or rear (where the top & bottom shells come together) and you got em ! It rips em apart & sends em flying 10-15 ft in pieces
Oh,and it works great shooting thru window screens(at their soft underbelly) w/o damage to the screen.

And eliminate your mosquito problems w/the gun go for the females ,Pix. >> https://www.tinymosquito.com/male-mosquitoes-female-mosquitoes.html

Thanks for that info! The nest is freaking huge and would make a very cool display.

From what I’ve researched, only the fertilized queen hibernates thru the winter. The males and workers die of old age or the cold.

Check out the sold nests on eBay. They’re selling for up to $1,000. Looks like a nice nest sells on average for $100+.
