Signs you have them

  • Clusters on the south and west walls in fall
  • Discolored spots on tomatoes and fruit

Why it matters

They damage fruit and vegetables, and the smell is unpleasant indoors.

How we treat it

Exterior treatment on walls, windows, and eaves where they gather. Plant pests in the garden are treated separately.

Prevention

  • Seal gaps around windows, siding, and vents
  • Vacuum them up indoors instead of crushing them
