Attacked too!pinkkari09 said:Jeanne, I'm being attacked too
I have them everywhere and yes they have a fowl odor. STINKY STINKY Bugs. There Asian Beetles and this is the time of year for them. I kill 'em all day long, go to bed and in the morning their back. Driving me nuts! NO NO NO don't squash 'em they really smell then, they stink just by lightly touching 'em. I went and got some raid and I spray 'em, bad thing is, they always hibernate on my kitchen ceiling.
I Feel Your Beetle Pain,
Kari
Blame the farmers! They brought them to the US! GRRRRRRRRRRRRR
Sick of them!

We had a problem with that one year-I thought maybe they were attracted to heat from the sun?..
My sister in law is battling it in Canada as we speak!

I think they stop when it freezes out, if I remember correctly. But if they are already in the house you might have to get rid of them yourself.
Yeah, still takes two tries to post.0 -

Someone suggested to put a container of liquid soap and water out. I did and just got a couple of them. HA! So, I don't think that works too well.

Ha ha. I also thought you were talking about the The Beatles, and that you were struck with a sudden case of Beatles mania. I pictured you listening to their albums over and over and becoming obsessed. LOL.
As for the BEETLES, yes we have them, too. I try to ignore them and my cats get to them eventually. Maybe you could get one of those Rumbas that are self-powered. Then you could just run the machine and have it chase the beetles away.

Beer? I think that is forRitzy said:Beer..hmmmmm
Maybe if I DRINK the beer, I won't notice them. EH?
LOL

Beer? I think that is for slugs. I also tried the soap and water, didn't work. I think we just have to wait for a frost to kill them. So, come on FROST!

This post is funny. Talking about beetles and the Beatles! Yea, we have those ladybugs or beetles too. I hope they go away soon. They do seem to go for the sunny windows. I smashed them too and they do stink. So, now I am using the sweeper.
LOL your pic Diane! I love it!

Freeze or FrostNoel said:LOL
Beetles or Beatles? Too funny!
♥ Noel
They have been saying on the news that probably only a hard frost or freeze will eliminate them. I never thought I would want that yet, but, I am tired of the stupid bugs too.
And, are all of the Beatles dead except for Paul? Is Ringo still alive?

Beer is great for snails. I had a friend who had a snail infestation. She got a big tub and filled it with beer. She had all her kids gather up all the snails they could and dumped them in the tub. Now, she didn't want to traumatize them by seeing them foam and die so she told them they were giving them a bubble bath. After the main event, she told them to go in the house and she would put them all back. The next day and day after she did the same thing. When they were all gone, she told the kids they were all clean and had gone home to their mommas. They were obviously very little kids, but they loved the snail bubble bath and told everyone at school about it. I thought it was too funny but then I am a little twisted. And I can't stand snails.

Ok Stef, if I give the snails a little beer, then I consume the rest, will the beetles disappear? I think they just might! HAHA
They are worse now since it has warmed up. I HATE these things!0 -
Well, they probably won'tjnl said:Beer for snails, then for ME

Well, they probably won't disappear, but if you have enough beer you won't care. LOL>

Drown em!DianeBC said:ugh
They are getting worse here now. The weather has gotten warmer and I think that is making them reproduce. Guess they don't have birth control :-(
Hugs, Diane ♥
Instead of sweeping them up, just put some soap and water in a little container and drown the buggers! lol Then, you shouldn't have the smell.

They say they come in when the weather gets cool outside. I have had an attack of those little pissants, all around my kitchen counter. In previous years I just raided the window and under the sink and they were gone, but my new kitty who is much younger than my old (RIP) kitty loves to lay up on that windowsill, so this year i can't spray. I did when I went away for a few days, then washed good when I got home, but there are still some stragglers. They say if they are still around after the first frost (which we are supposed to get tonight) then the nest is in the house already and you are screwed. Oh well - I will find out tomorrow morning! You got stinkbugs???? EWWWW, hate those things. Wish I knew how to tell you to get rid of them, did u google it?

I don't have stinkbugs and I don't think that is what they are talking about Pat. These are beetles or ladybugs that are around now because of the farm crops, beans in particular. They will probably die with a hard frost or when the beans are out of the fields. It is common this time of year. They are just a nuisance until the crops are harvested and the farmers are late this year.0
