Residual Toxicity of Selected Insecticides to Stink Bugs

Wes McPherson

This study shows the residual activity from six different insecticides commonly used to control stink bugs in Mississippi. After three days there is minimal residual activity from the insecticides tested. Rainfall significantly reduced the amount of residual activity from the insecticides. It also shows susceptibility differences between green and brown stink bugs.
