Anybody else notice these stink bugs all over the place?
We had some in the house last winter and so did a lot of people in our area. But this year, they are all over the outside of our building here at work and popping up in the house already. These things are taking over!

They were all over the place last night at my parents house in Delran. But I don't remember seeing any at all last year.

Have a lot at my house. Many of them are in spider webs so the spiders ate well this summer.

No noise, but the fly around in erratic patterns and when they land on you they hang on pretty good. But if you try to harm them or kill them, they let out a stink. So don't smack em against the wall.

Oh gawd, we have lots of those bugs here in Virginia this year too...hate it when they get in the house, they kinda sound like a bee when flying. They can't fly for crap, they bump into stuff and fall down, they seem to go for lightbulbs. Nasty critters! Stink bugs FTL!!

Funny you mention that. I did notice an abundance of these in Hamilton and where I work in Matawan.
