Stink bug control for Beebe, as the invasive brown marmorated stink bug continues working its way into Arkansas from the east.
Call (844) 924-1337The brown marmorated stink bug isn't native to Arkansas. It was first identified on the East Coast in the late 1990s and has only been moving into the state over roughly the past ten years, a timeline University of Arkansas Extension entomologists have documented as they track its spread. Each fall, the bugs are drawn to exterior walls that have soaked up sun during the day, clustering there before pushing their way inside to ride out the winter, and Beebe homes see the same pattern as the rest of the state.
What sets this apart from the stink bugs that have always turned up around Beebe is that this population is new, still growing, and still changing in numbers and behavior from one year to the next. That makes correctly identifying what's actually on a home's siding, invasive or native look alike, the real question behind most fall calls.

Sealing gaps around windows, doors, siding, and utility lines is the main way to reduce how many get inside, especially heading into fall. Checking exterior gaps can reveal entry points that are easy to miss during routine cleaning indoors.
Yes, professional treatment focused on exterior entry points can meaningfully reduce how many stink bugs get inside. It generally works best when paired with sealing work rather than indoor pesticide alone.
For stink bugs already inside, removal, like vacuuming or capturing them, rather than crushing them, is generally recommended to avoid the odor. Addressing exterior entry points is important for reducing repeated invasions; discuss those areas during an inspection.
The approach is largely the same as general stink bug control, focused on sealing entry points and exterior treatment, since this is the most common species found seeking shelter in homes. Identification helps confirm which insect is present before any control measures are chosen.
