Some said spray them with alcohol and variuos other ideas. For period of 1 year we were still seeing them. Spring of 2011 the rv was still sealed up including all vents from the winter and the weather suddenly got quite warm. The temp inside the rv was very high to the point it killed all the stink bugs and never saw them again. The y love the warmth but cant live in extreme heat.strobeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05077723858794363041noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2154511856319682113.post-3902130662750343282012-01-09T10:58:07.830-08:002012-01-09T10:58:07.830-08:00Ugh, i am NOT looking forward to the that this yea...Ugh, i am NOT looking forward to the that this year.

You can get it from Amazon. It is a natural product made from pure cedar oil. I promise you, if you spray around your trailer, it will kill of bugs in a couple of minutes but doesn't harm beneficial insects like butterflies, bees, etc. I don't have to deal with flies or other varmints and it even discourages snakes.John Mauldinhttp://www.heatingandairfilters.comnoreply@blogger.com
