Stink bugs #450480

Asked April 29, 2018, 7:58 PM EDT

I live in Castle Rock and I've recently seen two stink bugs in my house.  Should I be concerned about an infestation?  I've read this can happen rather suddenly.  Thanks.

Expert Response

These are probably individuals that overwintered nearby.  At this time of year their populations are at their lowest point, so it would be unlikely to see a rapid buildup.  The rapid buildups that you've read about most likely occurred in the fall.
