Stink bug control for Blytheville, as the invasive brown marmorated stink bug continues working its way into Arkansas.
Call (844) 924-1337Unlike the stink bugs that have always turned up around backyard vegetable gardens in Blytheville, the brown marmorated stink bug is a newcomer. First documented on the East Coast in the late 1990s, it's spent roughly the past decade working its way into Arkansas, a spread University of Arkansas Extension entomologists have confirmed as they track the species statewide.
Their research also flags a specific fall behavior worth knowing: as the population grows, more of these bugs gather on sun warmed exterior walls before squeezing indoors to spend the winter, and the numbers involved keep shifting from year to year as the species establishes itself further into the state. That's why a Blytheville service call increasingly starts with identifying what's actually on the siding.

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.
