Those dreaded stink bugs have returned and more specifically inside my house. I don't like to kill any bugs. Even with stink bugs, I try and "shoo" them out of the screen windows or sliders but there are times that I am too forceful and squish them. Everyone knows what happens when you kill skink bugs, they STINK!! That's why they are named what they are.
The most active season for stink bugs is March through September with warm temperatures, and according to the Farmers Almanac, this summer will be perfect for those stinky stinkers to thrive.
It seems they were everywhere in Central New York last year, and now experts are saying we're headed for a really bad stink bug season this year. Could 2020 suck any worse, Utica?
Some see bugs and go "ewwww," while others are fascinated by the "how and why" of insects and butterflies. For those of latter persuasion, don't miss Insectapalooza at Cornell University.
