Stink bug control for Fresno, where the invasive brown marmorated stink bug is an emerging pest in the almond orchards ringing the city.
Call (844) 924-1337Fresno homeowners are watching a genuinely new pest arrive in real time. The brown marmorated stink bug built its reputation as an East Coast nuisance, but California researchers have tracked it establishing itself in Central Valley agriculture, and the almond orchards ringing Fresno are now recognized as one of the crops it's actively colonizing. Because those orchards sit right up against the city's edge, the same insects building up in the trees each growing season are the ones showing up at siding gaps each fall, looking for a way indoors to overwinter.
This isn't a settled, steady state pest the way it is back east. Its California range is still actively growing, which means Fresno's orchard bordering neighborhoods should expect the pressure to keep building rather than level off.

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.
