Halloween Bugs

Halloween is right around the corner and with it comes the possibility of Halloween bugs or boxelder bugs as they are technically called. Boxelder bugs become a problem on warm days during the fall and winter when they start to appear inside the home. These bugs are a nuisance, but not really a danger. People hate them because they gather on the sunny side of the house or building with great numbers and then find their way into the home via holes in the house. When they do appear on the inside the best thing to do it just vacuum them down. If you smash them the will leave a mark and this stain can be permanent.

And I was just asking my roommate what those were. He does pest control in Vancouver, and I just moved here and saw these bugs for the first time.
