Stink bug control for Groton, part of a species that spread into New England within about a decade of its first United States sighting.
Call (844) 924-1337The brown marmorated stink bug is an invasive species first documented in Pennsylvania in the late 1990s, spreading through the Mid Atlantic and into New England, including Connecticut, within roughly a decade. As fall temperatures drop, stink bugs across the state seek out structures to overwinter in, gathering on sun warmed exterior walls before working into attics, wall voids, and window frames, a pattern Groton homeowners see the same as the rest of Connecticut.
Most Groton households notice the pest twice a year, once during fall entry and again in early spring as overwintering bugs search for a way back outside. Call (844) 924-1337 to ask about independent provider options that may cover Groton.
