Why South Palm Beach homes get stink bugs

The sandy soil over limestone that surrounds South Palm Beach is the starting point. It retains moisture at the foundation line, which is what stink bugs need to thrive. The coastal plains, wetlands, and flatland adds harborage, and the subtropical and tropical climate keeps the activity going through most of the year. Homes on slab foundations, with crawl spaces, or near the the Atlantic, the Gulf of Mexico, springs, and lakes see the heaviest pressure. The older neighborhoods and the newer subdivisions each bring their own pest profile.
