"Went out of his way to go above and beyond. Sprayed thoroughly inside and outside and inspected the exterior of the home for any possible entry ways. He's great and can't recommend enough!"
"Called and they got me in the same day. Walked the whole property with me, pointing out spots where bugs were getting in — stuff I honestly never would've noticed. Way more thorough than other companies."
"I waited for my Orkin contract to end so I could switch and it was worth it. Professional, thorough, and reliable, fair pricing and no contracts. Highly recommend."
Why Stink Bugs Are Such A
Problem In Oklahoma City
The Brown Marmorated Stink Bug has expanded significantly across Oklahoma over the past decade. Oklahoma City and Edmond homeowners deal with two major stink bug invasions every year — once in fall as temperatures drop and stink bugs seek warm overwintering sites, and again in spring as they wake up and try to get back outside.
The problem isn't that stink bugs bite or cause structural damage. The problem is the smell they release when disturbed or crushed, and how they invade in enormous numbers — dozens or hundreds can enter a home through gaps around windows, doors, and utility lines in a single day.
A single home can harbor hundreds of stink bugs overwintering inside walls, attics, and voids during winter. In spring when they become active again, they emerge inside the home all at once — often in numbers that overwhelm homeowners who thought the problem was gone.
Fall invasion is fast and overwhelming
As OKC temperatures drop in September and October, stink bugs actively aggregate on south and west facing walls before finding entry points — hundreds in a single day.
They overwinter inside your walls
Once inside, stink bugs enter a dormant state inside wall voids and attics — invisible all winter, then suddenly everywhere in spring.
Crushing them makes it worse
Stink bugs release an unpleasant odor when crushed or threatened. Vacuuming and crushing them without proper disposal makes the problem smell worse.
Edmond's larger homes have more entry points
Bigger properties in Deer Creek, Stone Canyon, and The Trails have more exterior surface area and more gaps for stink bugs to find their way in.
Signs You Have A Stink Bug
Problem In Your OKC Home
Finding stink bugs on south and west facing walls in fall — stink bugs aggregate on warm exterior walls before entering. Large numbers on your home's exterior in September and October means an invasion is coming.
Stink bugs appearing inside throughout winter — finding occasional stink bugs inside during winter means there are many more dormant in your walls and attic waiting for warmer temperatures.
Large numbers emerging in spring — dozens of stink bugs appearing inside in March and April means a large population overwintered in your home and is now trying to get back outside.
Unpleasant odor when pests are disturbed — the distinctive cilantro-like smell of a stink bug confirms their presence even when you can't see them.
How We Stop Stink Bugs From
Invading Your Oklahoma City Home
Stink bug control is primarily about prevention — treating before they enter is far more effective than trying to eliminate them once they're inside your walls. Our approach focuses on creating a barrier before fall and identifying every entry point they use.
Full exterior inspection
We inspect your home's full exterior — south and west facing walls, eaves, window frames, door frames, utility penetrations, and roofline gaps where stink bugs aggregate and enter. We identify every potential entry point specific to your Oklahoma City or Edmond property.
Exterior perimeter treatment
Professional-grade residual treatment applied to the full exterior — especially south and west facing walls, around all windows and doors, and along rooflines and eaves. Timed before the fall invasion for best results.
Entry point identification and sealing guidance
We document every gap, crack, and penetration stink bugs are using to enter and give you specific recommendations for sealing them. Weatherstripping, caulk, vent screens — we tell you exactly what needs attention.
Interior treatment when needed
If stink bugs are already active inside your home, we treat interior wall voids, attic access points, and harborage areas. Interior treatment is included at no extra charge when needed.
Ongoing protection
Stink bug control is included in our general pest control plans. Regular perimeter treatments maintain a barrier that deters stink bugs and all other common Oklahoma City pests year-round.
Best time to treat in Oklahoma City: Late August through September — before stink bugs begin aggregating on exterior walls. Treating proactively before the fall invasion is significantly more effective than treating after they've already entered.
How To Keep Stink Bugs Out
Of Your Oklahoma City Home
These steps combined with professional exterior treatment give you the best protection against fall stink bug invasions in OKC and Edmond.
Install or repair screens on all windows, doors, and attic vents before fall
Seal gaps around utility lines, HVAC pipes, and cable entry points with caulk
Replace worn weatherstripping on all exterior doors — stink bugs enter through tiny gaps
Reduce outdoor lighting near entry points — lights attract stink bugs at night
Keep vegetation trimmed back from the home's exterior walls
Schedule fall exterior treatment in August or September before invasion season begins

Common Questions About
Stink Bugs In Oklahoma City
No, stink bugs are not dangerous to humans or pets. They don't bite, sting, or transmit disease. They don't cause structural damage either. The problem is the unpleasant odor they release when disturbed or crushed, and the sheer numbers that can invade Oklahoma City homes during fall and spring.
Stink bugs seek warm overwintering sites as temperatures drop in fall. Oklahoma City homes provide ideal shelter — they aggregate on south and west facing exterior walls to warm up, then find gaps and cracks to enter. Once inside, they overwinter in wall voids and attics, emerging in spring when temperatures rise.
Professional exterior perimeter treatment before fall invasion season combined with sealing entry points is the most effective approach. Treating in late August or September before stink bugs begin aggregating on exterior walls prevents them from entering in the first place. Once they're inside walls, elimination is much harder.
Stink bug control is included in Axcel's general pest control plans. Monthly service starts at $60 per month and quarterly visits start at $110. No separate stink bug fee, no contracts required.
Neither — both methods can release the odor. For stink bugs already inside, use a bag vacuum and immediately seal and dispose of the bag outside. Better yet, call us and we'll treat entry points and interior harborage areas so the problem doesn't keep recurring.
