How To Use Cloves To Send Annoying Stink Bugs Running
By RHIANNON FAITH IRELAND
Though stink bugs won’t harm you, they can be nuisances thanks to the foul smell they often release. Luckily, you can get rid of them with an affordable kitchen ingredient: cloves.
Buy whole cloves rather than halved or ground ones. Disperse a handful of them in spots infected by stink bugs and in their entryways to your home, like doors and windowsills.
If you're dealing with a larger number of stink bugs rather than just three or four, use clove oil. This powerful essential oil will not just deter the pests but kill them.
