Guest inoubliable Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 Or, they don't drown easily anyway. Usually we throw them back outside. I'm in no mood for funny business tonight, though, and one flew into. my. face. Between my EYEBALL and my glasses. There must be consequences for touching my eyeball. Into the toilet it goes. And *flush* And UP. IT. SWAM. I don't even want to think of how many gallons of water I just wasted trying to flush it down. It's still in there. Floating about like he's vacationing poolside in Vegas. Who has the hooch? It's going to be one of those nights. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JudoMom Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 One of the boys put one in their jean pocket once. I couldn't figure out what the smell was, so I threw the load of jeans in the washer, and then into the dryer. I realized the odor was a stink bug when I opened the dryer door and the thing fell out, covered with lint, and with it's legs kicking.

JudoMom Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 I'm afraid so. He didn't smell anymore, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beaners Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 We had tons of those nasty creatures at our last house. Luckily we also had a new toilet that we had recently installed. I swear that toilet could have flushed a loaf of bread. Flushing was my normal plan of attack, and I don't recall any zombie bugs reemerging from the depths. That would be the stuff of nightmares.

jen3kids Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 throw in toilet cover with small amount of TP flush! They will get caught up in the tissue and be gone forever!!!! That's what we do here. If I throw them outside I figure they'll just come back in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SproutMamaK Posted February 15, 2013 Share Posted February 15, 2013 It's going to be one of those nights. Thank for ensuring that the rest of us are awake the whole night as well. :p Just think, I could have gone my whole life without knowing this about stinkbugs. I'd thank you for enlightening me, but.... ya know... not really. ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
