Viper dust powder ....has anybody ever used this? My neighbor has had trouble with stick bugs this year until he used this stuff and he said there were dead stink bugs all over the ground.

Well I see this is from Texas....Never heard of this stuff but if it works as you say wish I could get it here....The only thing I can do for stink bugs is use a hose end sprayer and spray my whole yard with triazicide which I get from home depot....When my father n law was still with us he had a card to get the good stuff....

One of the old timers at work told me that he plants sunflowers in his garden every year to take care of the bugs. I was going to try it this year but I did not get to plant in the spring with all the rain we had.

Cyonara Insecticide works very well for stinkbugs too. It contains the active ing. Lamda cyhalothrin and i know many people, including myself, who use it with great results.

I heard marigold works too but have a small garden and hate to waste space on flowers. My grand pa had 2 6" long pieces of 2x4 tacked together by a piece of leather on one end. they hung on the garden gate. When asked what it was for he said it was his pee-nez control device. Case yall don't know das stink bug in grandpa language.

I just sprinkle a little Seven Dust to get rid of the stink bugs.

Repeat again if it rain hard.
