TERRO®
Launches New Line of Stink Bug Killers
Stop Foul Home Invasions
with Ready-to-Use Stink Bug Killer Sprays
LITITZ, PA—Nov. 12,
2012— Stink bug invasions have been on a steady rise
since they arrived in the U.S. 15 years ago, and entomologists are predicting
record invasions this fall due to an early spring and record-breaking summer heat.
However, homeowners can now protect themselves against foul home invasions with
a new line of Stink Bug Killers from TERRO®, a leader in DIY ant
and pest control products.
TERRO®
Ready-to-Use Stink
Bug Killer Spray and TERRO® Stink Bug Killer Aerosol Spray
quickly kill insects on contact. For long-term control, the Ready-to-Use
spray is formulated to continue killing up to four months. The
non-staining, odorless stink bug killers are also effective against boxelder bugs, Asian
lady bugs, carpenter ants and crickets. Both products may be used indoors
and outdoors.
“Right
now, with cool weather settling in, stink bugs are searching for a warm place
indoors to hibernate for the winter,” says Stew Clark, Director of Research at
TERRO. “Though not harmful to homeowners, remember that stink bugs are aptly
named - it refers to the scent glands located on the underbelly of the insects.
When frightened or smashed, the bugs release a terrible smell – which is reason
enough to take steps to protect your home from a stink bug
invasion.”
Clark
recommends treating cracks and crevices in and around homes using the directional stream on the two-way spray nozzle included on
the TERRO® Stink Bug Killer Aerosol Spray can. Apply to areas
where stink bugs crawl and hide, especially around sinks and storage areas;
behind baseboards; around doors and windows; behind and under refrigerators,
cabinets, and stoves.
“Before
an indoor insect invasion gets out of control, it’s also a good idea to set up
an outdoor barrier with TERRO Ready-to-Use Stink Bug Killer Spray,” advises
Clark. “This product not only kills on contact but it provides a long-lasting
residual control up to four months.”

The 411 by Maria:
I don't know about you but we have such a stink bug problem from September to the beginning of next month in my area. Everyone in my town writes about their Stink Bugs on Facebook so I know I am not alone.
These bugs are just don't right nasty looking. They look like little helmets walking around and we are removing at least one a day for weeks. We tend not to smash them because they do give off an odor so we usually trap and release but that means they will come back. We are in love with the new TERRO® Stink Bug Killer sprays especially the one with the wand where I can get into the crevices around my door frame.
So we used the spray once and are seeing a significant decrease in the amount of Stinks getting in and even on my deck. LOVE It! I really do not like bugs!

I just moved back to SW Virginia from Florida. I'll take stink bugs any day instead of scorpions and fire ants. However, the stink bugs are very annoying, to say the least. I'd love to win this new product. tammy at alteredartichoke dot com
ReplyDeletewe have some stink bugs around here, but mainly we are bothered by ants, crickets, and spiders. we have praying mantises that help keep the bug population down but they can only eat so many!
ReplyDeleteThey stink! Stinkbugs secrete a foul-smelling liquid! And they are creepy!
ReplyDeleteStink Bugs were SO BAD this year in PA where I live, I would be SO HAPPY to win this & kill them. TY for the chance ♥♥
