Stink Bug Pest Control

EcoGuard Pest Management offers guaranteed stink bug control services for your residential or commercial property. While these pests are more of a nuisance than a threat, they still present problems as they secrete a bad odor that gets worse if they are smashed. If they swarm or die indoors, that smell can potentially overwhelm sensitive noses. Our state licensed stink bug exterminators are trained in how to deal with these pests. Our integrated pest management plan will identify problematic areas and provide treatment to prevent stink bugs from entering your home.

Experienced Stink Bug Exterminators

Adult stink bugs are small, flat, brown bugs that are generally only a threat to vegetation as they can cause damage to plants, trees, and gardens. They don’t cause structural damage or spread disease but can become a nuisance since they gravitate towards areas that are well lit. Their draw towards lit areas often leads them towards homes and sometimes indoors as they also look for places to stay out of the elements. This becomes more of an issue as temperatures drop in the winter. They reproduce quickly with each female capable of laying up to 30 eggs at a time several times a year. At EcoGuard Pest Management we are experienced and knowledgeable in all forms of stink bug treatment methods from local treatment to exterior applications and exclusion. EcoGuard utilizes integrated pest management (IPM) and has over 40 years of combined experience providing stink bug pest control services. Our goal is to ensure that stink bugs do not get a chance to reproduce and cause an infestation.


This is why EcoGuard also offers a 100% satisfaction guarantee for all of our customers, and we stand by our promise to eradicate your problem until the very last stink bug is gone. That stink bug control guarantee comes with every service and if they come back, then so do we, at no additional cost.

Stink Bug Information

EcoGuard Pest Management is a leader in stink bug control methodology & service.

Stink bugs earn the name as they produce a foul odor that is designed to protect them from predators when they feel threatened and attract a mate. The most prevalent species, the brown marmorated stink bug, is a recent invasive addition that is now found all over the United States. They originated in East Asia and became an American problem sometime in the 1990’s. They are flying insects that have become agricultural pests as stink bugs feed on various fruits and vegetables as well as leafy crops. The damage they cause make the crops unsellable which has a huge impact on everything from small family-owned gardens to major agricultural producers. There are other species that provide some benefit as they are predatory to other crop damaging bugs, but these species are much harder to find. 

When winter comes and temperatures drop, these bugs will look for areas to survive the cold. This usually leads them indoors via small cracks in window screens and gaps under doors. They are often accompanied by clusters which means that one stink bug is usually indicative of others close by. This is because other stink bugs will follow the pheromones contained in the foul odor stink bugs secrete. Once inside, these bugs will hide in hard-to-reach places like wall cavities, attics, or crawl spaces and will only become active once spring rolls around and temperatures warm.
