Stink Bugs DO die in soapy water. Also, See Extreme Stink Bugs Flushed!
It is not true that killing them attracts more. Here is some legit info about them:
http://njaes.rutgers.edu/stinkbug/faq.asp
Why does the brown marmorated stink bug collect in large clusters? When a brown marmorated stink bug finds a site that is suitable for overwintering it releases a chemical called an aggregation pheromone. The aggregation pheromone is a scent that attracts other brown marmorated stink bugs to the area. The aggregation pheromone is not the same chemical that causes them to stink.
Will killing the brown marmorated stink bug attract more? No. While this is true for some types of insects it does not occur with the brown marmorated stink bug.

  • @nsbd90now Correct! Chicago... though I've lived in Pittsburgh a long time I still get comments about it. I take no offense, its funny.

  • Because of you, wherever your water goes after it is flushed, is infested with stink bugs lmfao XD

  • @nambinhvu I guess that explains the Monongahela. :D

  • @nsbd90now What's that? lol

  • @nambinhvu One of the three rivers in Pittsburgh. The Mon and the Allegheny flow together to create the Ohio River. Thus, "Three Rivers". It is very beautiful, and has all been relatively cleaned up over the past decades. They all converge at "The Point" at downtown Pittsburgh.
