The beetles are bad out here this year. I was out of the 'beetle bags', but still had some lure from last year. So I just set up a 5 gallon bucket with some water in it and hung the lure inside. Not a bad catch for the afternoon.
I know how stinky these can get so plan to just dump them in the storm sewer every night.

I hardly have any around. Strange.

Now if someone knows of a method for killing stink bugs like that I'm all ears. I get invaded every year around the time the beans get cut.

Slamming the cana lilies right now. I have two bags up. Love the bucket idea.
