Had those around my area couple years ago.  They were everywhere, all over the outside of the house.  I'd never seen them around before in the 30 years I've lived here.  The following year they were gone.

Don't confuse my personality with my attitude.
My personality is who I am. My attitude depends on who you are.

Shamless has the right idea; treat them like bad relatives and don't let them reproduce. We had them bad a few years ago and had bottles all around to collect them. The next few years they weren't that bad.

If it was fun to pull in LOW gear, I could have a John Deere.
Real pullers don't have speed limits.
If you can't make it GO... make it SHINY

Are those the red/black ones? If it’s the ones I’m thinking, we called ‘em ‘box elder bugs’. Dawn dishwashing soap mixed into a spray bottle will kill them.

I tried to follow the science, but it was not there. I then followed the money, and that’s where I found the science.
