Stink bugs don't bite. However, stink bugs will secrete a foul-smelling substance when disturbed, and some people get skin reactions or other allergies when exposed to stink bug secretions.

The Key to Getting Rid of Stink Bugs

Q: What attracts stink bugs?

Stink bugs look for shelter, and when they locate a suitable location, they release an aggregation pheromone that attracts other stink bugs to the site. Aggregation pheromone is not the same substance that causes stink bugs to smell bad.

Q: How long does the stink bug smell last?

Stink bug odor can last up to an hour outdoors and longer inside of a home, depending on the ventilation. Stink bugs produce this odor when frightened by a predator or when crushed.

The Science

Risks of Stink Bugs

Learn all about stink bugs

Unpleasant Odor (Ew)

Stink bugs can emit a strong and smelly odor from their body glands whenever they feel threatened or have been injured.

Can Damage Gardens

Stink bugs attack plants for food, using their mouth to pierce the skin of the plant and then sucking out the juice.

Stink Bug Infestations

When a stink bug finds a hospitable location to overwinter, they'll summon other stink bugs through scent.
