When Box Elder Bugs Attack!

It’s a few days past Halloween, but talking to people about box elder bugs (Boisea trivattatus) reminds me of a horror movie. When the weather starts cooling down in the fall, peoples’ homes are sometimes inundated with masses of red and black bugs that freak out many homeowners, especially since it seems you get rid of one batch and another group follows. Kind of like buggy zombies.
