Stink bug control for Clovis, a Central Valley city close to the almond orchard acreage where this invasive pest is actively spreading.
Call (844) 924-1337Homeowners near Clovis's orchard country are seeing an insect that didn't used to be part of the seasonal lineup here: the brown marmorated stink bug, a species that built its reputation on East Coast infestations but has since taken hold in California's Central Valley, almond acreage included. Entomologists tracking the spread now classify it as a genuine crop pest rather than the ornamental nuisance it was once dismissed as, and Clovis sits close enough to that orchard and farmland acreage to feel the effects directly.
What happens in the orchards doesn't stay in the orchards. As the population builds up on nearby crop trees each growing season, the same insects turn up looking for cracks around siding and utility lines once fall arrives, seeking somewhere warm to spend the winter. Because California's population of this pest hasn't leveled off yet, unlike the long established infestations back east, homeowners around Clovis should expect the pressure to keep increasing rather than plateau.

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.
