An unlikely ally will help keep stink bugs out of many regional homes this fall, according to one bug expert.
Many indigenous insect species are "switching over" and dining on stink bugs, says Mike Raupp, professor of entomology at the University of Maryland. More effective insecticides with specific purposes are also proving successful in controlling the spread of this bothersome invader.
"This may be part of the reason we've had fewer problems with our crops so far," he says. "The good news here is we've come up with a lot of solutions."
