I don't squash them as I don't want to take a chance on them smelling.<BR/><BR/>As far as how to kill them - my understanding is that's it's better to prevent them from taking up residence in the house by sealing cracks and using insect screens. One comment I read suggests using some kind of light trap if necessary... and one comment had said that if you use an insecticide the smell of the dead bugs will attract others for the feast and you'll have more problems on your hands.<BR/><BR/>I'm gonna need better screens next summer!Howdyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17895833780094335534noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8560728302493710730.post-18571690020406873322009-01-08T20:49:00.000-05:002009-01-08T20:49:00.000-05:00When we took down the Christmas tree box, they wer...When we took down the Christmas tree box, they were inside on the branches... as we put up the tree they would drop to the carpet: where the dogs would then torment and finally kill by rolling on them.<BR/><BR/>They are such a pest!!!<BR/><BR/>Any idea what to use to kill them? I wonder if Diatomaceous Earth would work on them?smiledarlinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02312462611420599868noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8560728302493710730.post-47189251051761243272009-01-08T20:26:00.000-05:002009-01-08T20:26:00.000-05:00Yuk.
