The BEST WAY to trap and get rid of STINK BUGS....It's so SIMPLE and CHEAP!

What happens here

When stink bugs manage to get inside your house, an effective and odor-free way to remove them is by using a simple upcycled bottle trap. Take any empty plastic bottle with a cap, such as a Gatorade, water, or soda bottle (the host uses a Gatorade bottle). Position the open end of the bottle directly beneath the stink bug. Gently tap the surface (wall, window, etc.) where the bug is resting. The stink bug will instinctively drop into the bottle. Immediately cap the bottle to contain the bug and its characteristic odor. The bugs will eventually suffocate inside the sealed bottle. This method allows for easy disposal without touching the bugs or experiencing their unpleasant smell.

Goal: Learn how to quickly and cleanly trap stink bugs that have entered your home using a simple upcycled plastic bottle, preventing direct contact and odor transfer.
