Yes, it is one effective way to kill them. I have a problem with them in my home, and since squishing them releases their odor (which attracts more stink bugs for some reason), spraying them is probably your best bet.
Their shell protects them from many pesticides and other things that would kill normal insects (like Windex or something).
Today, I tried this, and it works:
In a spray bottle, mix Rubbing Alcohol (I used 91% Isopropyl Alcohol) with chopped up/minced mint leaves. I assume the alcohol kills them, and they a repelled by the scent of mint, so that provides a deterrent to them coming back to the area you sprayed.
This method is most effective when you spray them directly on their underbelly. If you spray the shell only, they take a while to die (possibly can survive it?). But if you get their underside with the alcohol spray, they stagger around for 10 seconds then eventually die, usually between 20 and 60 seconds.
Hope this helps
Yes it is and it smells bad.
no crushing a stink bug will not atract other stink bugs but the smell is hard to get rid of
no it will not. the stink bugs protection will always be there
Stink bugs belong to the family Pentatomidae.
U could use fertilizers that rid pest-bugs but I suggest you make your own be using liquid soap or garlic and lemon.

Yes, stink bugs do have a hard outside shell. The bugs are not poisonous.
No. Asian Lady Beetles (Stink Bugs) are everywhere!
They are born with that defense.
Stink bugs came from Asia in a cargo shipment.
no birds eat stink bugs because well they stink.
