Stink bugs

Every winter when the temperature drops and the animals begin to hibernate, it's like an atom bomb is dropped on the insects of the world and they all seem to disappear. I forget about these pests until about halfway through the winter, when I will find a bug or two on the brink of death, struggling to survive in the crevice under my stairs ( this is partially due to the spray that the exterminator disperses around my house). This is the beginning of bad news however, as spring comes closer to the surface so do the bugs. Their numbers gradually increase under our noses, and before long they are no longer fearful of the artic temperatures and come out in the open for fun and exploration. Out of all the bugs I dislike the most, the winner would most definately be stink bugs. I think this is because they have a unique ability to find their way into my house, as well as invite their friends. If I was to display my room and my bathroom right now, I could probably find five or six stink bugs just kicking back and relaxing. It has gotten to a point now that whenever my friends are over and see one, I just refer to them as some of my pets and act as if nothing was out of the ordinary.The stench they let off is what really used to make me mad, what can you do about it? I would rather just be bitten or stung by some other insect then have to deal with that annoying smell. I dislike these bugs so much that I have almost come to friendly terms with them, just because trying to keep them out is useless. These bugs are relentless, and I just hope that they will remember my kindness when they have the numbers to take over our world...
