Stink Bug Control

When I went to the barn to get my goats feed and so many of those "creatures from h***" attacked and got in my hair. Does anyone have a suggestion of how to get rid of them?

Well I thought about going bald. But, the Bible tells me not to.

When we clean out our chimney we use a waste basket to catch them, we then give them to the chickens.

My chickens won't touch the stink bugs...
They eat Junebugs though.

I have never had to deal with these nasty things until I moved here.
Just put up some traps, seems to be helping.
You can get them at Lowes and places like that.
