Why Are They Laying Eggs on Your Sheets of All Places?
Here’s the thing — stink bugs aren’t out to get you. They simply… have no sense of boundaries.
They’re attracted to warm, quiet spots. Your sheets? Warm, seldom bothered during the day, and teeming with small creases that are ideal hiding places.
If you hang laundry on a line to dry, or if you stash clean clothes near a window, boom — you’re in. Stink bug slinks in, says, “Sweet digs,” and leaves a parting gift: an egg case. Classy.
Are Stink Bug Eggs Dangerous? Should You Panic?
Nope. Not dangerous. Believe me, it’s hard to fathom, but trust me.
Gross? Yes. Startling? Absolutely. But dangerous? Not even a little.
The eggs, it turns out, won’t bite, burst open and stain your sheets. They just hatch. Into baby stink bugs. Which you don’t want running around your house, clearly.
And adult stink bugs? They stink so bad when you squish one. The kind you didn’t close the windows for days and days.
So yeah, don’t crush them. Unless you want it on your bedding.
