Never ever seen them like this here in NJ.

They are everywhere.

you have a problem with them,3?....the ones i`ve dispatched don`t seem to stink....

they hang around the rear of the house...clinging to the walls and window screens...and they slip inside at any opportunity..

i`ve been reading some horror stoeies about them...

i sprayed them with raid yard and garden...but if it killed them,it took longer than i had to sit there and watch...they`re tough mofos...

I wouldnt quite call it a problem, more of an annoyance at this point as they are out in force.

They are all over the screens on my back patio & really the whole rear of the house.

No problems with the odors as of now & they seem pretty harmless so I just try & ignore them best I can.

And yes they are tough little buggers...kinda got a built in suit of armor.

They came out in full force here about two weeks ago, the screen is covered on our sliding glass door in the afternoon. A neighbor told me he had his house sprayed by a local company and he has noticed considerably less in the last week. We spoke briefly but plan on getting more details from him this weekend.

Is it true that crushing them emitts a scent that will attract more? Or is that just a myth?

"They really cause no harm," White said. "Just a nuisance."

utter bullshit..i`ll probably have to throw out two balloon valances over the kirchen windows...i pulled around 20 out of them...and they emit a purple liquid that does stink....

if i didn`t have pets,i`d have pest control here.....
