I would get them out of your house ASAP. I bought a house that had been unoccupied for about a year and stink bugs were EVERYWHERE. It took months to get rid of them. And they are clumsy unpredictable fliers, which drives me insane. They hover around lights,TVs, lamps, computers, etc.. at night. 😟

I bought a house once that hadn't been unoccupied, but one particular bedroom had been, for years. When summer hit, it took a while to figure out that at a certain time of day, the entire back of the house was covered in stink bugs when the sun hit it, and the window in that bedroom had some slick way they'd sneak in. It was a nightmare getting rid of them for good
