I just did. No squash bugs, but yellow leaves and four small eggs under one leaf that looked like pearls or fish eggs. I squished them. Think the have leaf rust or too much water. Lots of rain these last few days here in N. Texas.
UNBELIEVABLE!!! You are defiantly right, scripture tells all! We pray that you will be blessed no matter what! Father will make sure we will come through these times ahead! Shalom to your Home!
Put a sheet under the tree when you take them off the tree by hand. A lot will fall to get away and you can scoop them up easy. I'll keep the lookout for them in my garden. I wonder if they come like cicadas. Some years are worse than others.
It's been really rainy here in south east Texas! Just went out to check my gardens and stink bugs are all over my tomatoes! Blessings to you and yours!
I just discovered sesame oil for stinkbugs. Mixed with spinosad and neem oil has worked wonders in my garden this year. The ones I've been dealing with are of the leaf legged variety and last year they destroyed my entire tomato crop along with aphids. I'm glad y'all founds those little stinkers.
Thanks for the heads up. Im new today to your channel. Im north of you & somethings been eating the bean leaves . I think ive caught it in time. Im going to check on my fruit trees now! As you said... God told us its going to be like this.
I'm due east of you about 100 miles and my Rattlesnake greenbeans were loaded with the same stink bug, ive never had this problem before. I dusted with pyrethrin dust. Im going to keep an eye on my fig trees.
I have never seen an infestation like that. So thankful that Y'all found it and know what to do to get rid of it. That's crazy. You two stay healthy and safe. God Bless Y'all.
Got to be careful tho. Tobacco can pass along tobacco mosaic virus to tomatoes But my uncle used to feed all the horses and goats a piece of chewing tobacco said if was to deworm them. So I'd bet it makes a good bug spray.
What I was tsught stink bugs look like (in GA) and what yall call stink bugs seem to be 2 differemt things. What we've always calked stink bugs have a body like a pentagon thats hard shelled and their antennae are like a beatle's. Now im gonna have to do some rrsearch bc somebody told me wrong! Thx for the info!
There are several different types of stink bugs. I have 3 types of them here in NW GA but not ones like Danny and Wanda have. I read an article from 2011 that said there are over 200 types of them and GA has over 60 of them. The most common one we have here is the brown marmorated ones.Hope this helps. Much Love
Fed Up Southern Girl , I agree with you. The ones we have here in WNC are bigger and leaf green to brown in color. Those look more like Japanese beetles we have here.
I should have told you in the last video you did about the stink bugs, I use a small butane pencil torch and fry the stink bugs without hurting the plant and if you wave it under the branches and leaves they drop to the ground and then you can fry them (very satisfying lol) you can buy a small torch like this at lowes or home depot in the soldering section Thanks for your videos
Thank you for sharing!! Are you still dealing with them? They are in my garden for the first time this year. And I was wondering if you learned any new techniques of getting rid of them since you shared this video?
I'm praying for us all to have the tools and knowledge to get through or be saved from these pests. I will watch them drop like the wicked elite hahaha. God bless!
@@donniewillis2926 a lot people won't use that anyone. They say it's very toxic. My parents used it when I was a child and I've used 10% for fleas back when you could get it. I even walked barefoot on it when I used it on the carpet for fleas. Never had any problems with it. But it's considered dangerous now.
Here in Texas too I use need oil n pyrethrum it’s all organic so no harm to us or the world I also add dawn soap n peppermint oil use this every week last year now every other week love n prayers God bless y’all
Thank God that you looked a second time and found them. Can you spray the ground in and around the new greenhouse with the stuff you made up in the cup ?? Not on the fig tree root area but around it ? That could have been a very bad thing if you hadn't found them now. Just a detour now is better then losing everything later. Best wishes at getting rid of them all. Stay safe and healthy. God bless
Wow! I've seen them bad before, but not that bad! I have noticed this year they haven't been as bad here. But I refused to plant any sunflowers because last year they swarmed us and they were nesting in the sunflowers! I also planted dill and borage around our garden this year instead of the sunflowers.
I live very close to you guys and I'm having the same issue on our asain long beans. I'm using soap and a 5 gallon buck I'll go check the fig trees now.
We know Stink bugs as Shield Bugs in the UK, but we don't see them in large quantities, just a random few. Their crop of choice with me has always been raspberries, they jump on my top and hitch a ride around the garden. I am lucky not to have them in any numbers that do visible damage to the plants. You did well to remove them so efficiently, I have never seen such clusters of them around stems etc. I use Neem oil as a preventative for bugs, but on a garden the size of yours my little spray bottle would be futile. It will be interesting to see if they focus on a limited number of plants. Good luck!
Thanks for the video. I found it by searching for these "kudzu bugs", because I just found our fig trees covered with them. Apparently they like fig trees. Have you found any way to prevent them since this video? We enjoy your videos and appreciate what you all do for us. Be well and God bless you.
Wow Danny I am so sorry you are dealing with this if I lived near by I would come and help you but I live in Utah we deal with aphids snails and earwigs eating our plants, so I fill you, best of luck to you.
Good gosh! I don't think I've seen that many stink bugs in my whole life. I'm on the texas Gulf Coast and I do see 3 or 4 a year but I've never seen anything like the infestation you have. Lol the end time prophecy about pestilences is on my mind a lot this growing season. I'm losing a lot of veggies and fruits to pests this year. Much much more than ever in my life. I wish y'all well in getting rid of them all.
We have the Kudz stink bugs all over the sunny backside of our house. This is the 1st year to ever see them. They love to cling to the yellow siding and white handrails on our back porch which gets the hot afternoon sun and heat. for some reason. I have found the best thing that kills them instantly is a mix some Dawn dish detergent and water in a 2 gallon pump sprayer. They drop instantly and it seems like I'm getting a handle on them, They come out in the heat of the day after 2PM here in Greer SC then by 6PM they are gone, Thanks for the heads up that they are probably on a plant or in the ground, will have to look for them during the early morning. They do stink even when they are dying from the soap solution. If you use a vacuum of any kind it will ruin it as the smell will not wash out. Smells like some very bad vegetation.
My brother showed a cool tip. He bought a battery powered vacuum with a 2 or 3 gal tub and a 4 ft hose. He walks out to the garden and vacuums all the bugs up.
OH, you guys!!! WHAT horrors!!! That is SO creepy and awful. Those stink bugs must be desperate! You almost need to vacuum them! Awww.... poor Fig Tree..... :( I'm SO sorry guys... SO much extra work for you all. Just so NOT what you need.... :( HUGS
Sorry to see your beautiful fig tree so infested. It looks so healthy. I underplant mine with lavender cos it likes the same lime rich soil, I don’t think stink bugs like smelly plants. I use the lavender too, dry it for muslin bags the clothes closets to keep moths away. I hope you get a good crop of figs.
Our main one, as in most visable, in DFW that I know of is the Leaf Footed Stink Bug. Huge suckers, and they have some sort of more rare, larger cousin variety too, that you might see a couple/few a year, those approach the size of Texas cicadas. We do have alot of the shield types too, but they are more shy and not as large
So sorry about the bugs. First thought was to vacuum them up,mthen to dust them and ground with diatomateous earth, maybe sticky traps...then, thought about Wanda having essential oils...many bugs will stay away with certain scents like peppermint, lavender, etc...would be safe spray for trees and plants. Even spices...hot pepper, cloves. Just a thought.
These look so different from the marmorated drink bugs we have in GA, which are fingernail sized as adults. Destroyed a crop of quinoa in an afternoon. We fight them in the house all winter long too. Bad pest season in our area as well after so much rain Jan-May and now the heat has set them off. Fighting the japanese beetles currently.
Japanese beetles are horrible here in NW GA this year. I wish I had a good place upwind of my garden to hang pheromone traps for them. Unfortunately my garden is on the back of my property and I don't think my neighbors would appreciate me hanging one on their property. Much Love
@@janpenland3686 I'm in NE GA, small world. They decimated my market crop of blackberries last year, but hubby assured me they only popped up here every few years or so. But they are poised for a repeat and it's more than I can do by hand. Pheramone trap caught tons last year but we still lost our berries. Hope you have better luck! Bucket of water with some dr bronner's soap was pretty good for the ones I did pick off.
@@paulasnatural I remember battling them in my Dad's rose garden - we were in a rose growers association and it was a daunting prospect when show time was coming up and they appeared en masse! But these guys are on plants that *never* have pests for me, like our rosemary, asparagus and parsley. Strange year indeed
Those look like kudzu bugs. I had never seen them in my life until they arrived in Georgia in 2009. They completely cover kudzu vines, but nothing kills kudzu, so it seemed like they were pretty harmless. They must be developing a taste for other plants. I'll have to check my fig tree now.
Went out Saturday and pruned my grapes, saw no bugs on them. Went out Sunday morning just to look at things and found Japanese beetles on the grapes. Not a-lot but they’re coming and soon! Like you say they just appear overnight!
O my....Not cold enough long enough this last winter...Now fighting bugs everywhere ... Have 14 young guinea Keets and I'll be so glad when they're big enough to turn loose on all these bugs .. I've used dawn and hot peppers mixed with water only helps a little bit here. Good luck...
Cog Hill just had to torch his beans the infestation was so bad. Thought i needed to educate myself about this pest. I've had two fly on me this week. Central Georgia
Here in Alabama, we had that problem last year, hopefully they will not be as bad this year's cycle. They even invaded indoors. I sure wish you well with them!
I tried that too, then ended up finding out through researching that there's no way to get rid of them other than hand picking. I'd have to live in my garden to do that, because they're in there from daybreak to dusk.
Yeah they screwed me over too and I started tomatoes a week before st Patrick's day zone 8b. Weird about the fig tree I have a 20 year old magnolia figs and I've seen no stinkers in those though.
You have to spray when it’s not going to rain. Our big market mama after I talked to they are using hydrogen peroxide mixed with water and spraying on.
I despise stink bugs! They destroyed my peas and tomatoes two years ago, and there was no way to keep up with them (I have chronic pain conditions, so it takes every bit of strength that I have to keep up with regular tending). We didn't have a single one show up in the years before that, then suddenly there were too many to handle. I am so glad that they didn't reach your greenhouse!
I was born here in N GA, but raised in N Alabama, and we never had them that bad that I can ever remember. My daddy would have had a fit if he came out and found those on his figs like that, too. I don't even know the best way to get rid of them, because I've never seen them like that.
Danny, Wanda, do you have any small paint brushes at the farm...like artists use, or ladies use for make-up. It would keep you from having to reach in and touch them, and maybe they'd fly off before you could knock 'em into the sudsy liquid in the cup. May God protect your produce and plantings. : /
I found a lot of them on my wisteria tree. Bugs cover all flowers...Love the tree but i have to take it down. i scare of kudzu bugs will enter the house. I live in south California. I guess this bugs everywhere now. Haven't seen them last year.
You may know the kudzu bugs were first recorded in the USA in 2009 in GA. They were recorded in MS in 2012 but not in all counties. Infact some counties still haven't reported them. The county extensions ask people to watch and report of they are in a county that they haven't been recorded yet, I don't know your county but if you are one that didn't previous have the kudzu bug then it would be nice if you would call your county extension to tell them so that they can document it. This website has kudzu data that they are tracking at www.kudzubug.org/distribution-map/ Their data is behind because this year in April another agency reported the kudzu bug in Texas for the first time. The kudzu bug website also has a good identification page that shows all stages of development from egg to adult. They go through 5 instar before reaching adult and they have pictures of what they look like at those instar stages. www.kudzubug.org/identification/ It shows difference in female and male too.
We don't have any bugs on the plaints in Sandy Hook but wow the house flies are crazy. How do you handle the flies!!!! It out first summer in Mississippi.
Another gift from China, stink bugs. Man, our stink bugs up here are twice the size. I found one in my smoker yesterday. Those must be just hatched. I get them all over my pumpkins, covering them.
We dont call those "stink bugs", those are Japanese beetles. My dad has them covering his raspberry plants, but they arent eating the berries or harming the plants. Stink bugs are flat and smell horrible if you dont smash them before they spray you, or sometimes they will spray while you smash them. Nasty either way! Glad to see how you take care of them, because those things fly and hit you in the face! Lol
Use Diatemaceous Earth, Food Grade. I sprinkle it on my plants. I, also, use it on my dog. You can mix it with distilled water in a spray bottle also. It works for me.
Could you mix up a strong soap solution and spray the stink bugs?last year I had an infestation of stink bugs probably worse than you have I sprayed them with mala thion.
Oh My, they are everywhere, Something is causing this and what could it be Danny? That is an infestation for sure, I feel for you and like you said it's spoken in the Word and the Word Don't Lie. Take Care You Two and keep us up to date👀💯💓😲💑✝
The insects are crazy here in East Tennessee too. Ugh!
Agreed, we're in East TN too and its about time for the first stink bug swarm of the year
Now I'm gonna have to go look at my fig tree
I just did. No squash bugs, but yellow leaves and four small eggs under one leaf that looked like pearls or fish eggs. I squished them. Think the have leaf rust or too much water. Lots of rain these last few days here in N. Texas.

You need a flamethrower....say hello to my little friend. Lol
Put a sheet under the tree when you take them off the tree by hand. A lot will fall to get away and you can scoop them up easy. I'll keep the lookout for them in my garden. I wonder if they come like cicadas. Some years are worse than others.
Wow! So glad you spotted them. Take care, what a mess
Ooooo! They are aggravating! Real glad you caught that! Be well.
It's been really rainy here in south east Texas! Just went out to check my gardens and stink bugs are all over my tomatoes! Blessings to you and yours!
I have never seen so many stink bugs in my life than this spring and summer
Someone mentioned once that aphids don't like garlic spray. I never tried it myself but maybe blend some garlic in water and spray them.

If you have a battery dustbuster, you can suck them off the plant. we had tons of stinkbugs in the fall. They were even in the house.
My go to for undesirable insects is the Dyson handheld. I don't think the engineer would approve though.
I just saw your post right after I posted. I wondered if that would work too.
great idea! a shop vac with dish soap in the bottom would be bad to the bone!🤔
Great idea.
@@lbarnes8207 I've done that for fleas in the past, to keep from big infestation in the house.
Love your video’s, and as soon as you mentioned the Word of God I subscribed.
God bless and love from London England 🏴
So sorry ! lost for words right now but I will pray for you both .
Those stink bugs were on our fig tree a couple weeks ago! We picked them off a few days in a row and drowned them in water. We live in Richlands NC.
Oh wow. I will keep this in mind. These bugs are no joke
Thank you guys for sharing. God Bless🙂
Mr Danny I thought of an old bug remedy.. Making a tea of loose leaf tobacco..Tobacco water with soap spray plants and ground around the plants.
Got to be careful tho. Tobacco can pass along tobacco mosaic virus to tomatoes
But my uncle used to feed all the horses and goats a piece of chewing tobacco said if was to deworm them. So I'd bet it makes a good bug spray.

You are used to later life cycle of the stink bug. These are next stage after hatching. It's a baby stinker lol

Yep! Cucs, carrots, radishes, lettuce and kale are loaded with bugs! Its nuts here too! Neem and BT aren’t working
We are seeing the same thing. It's like they are immune to the sprays.
Eyes 2 C how about Seven spray or dust?
@@donniewillis2926 a lot people won't use that anyone. They say it's very toxic. My parents used it when I was a child and I've used 10% for fleas back when you could get it.

🙏 Sorry to hear about the bug issue:(
Oh wow! That's so crazy! Ugh. I hate pests!
Wow 😮 I have never seen this before 👀🐞needs some Lady BUGS 🐞it happened in Europe but Our Lady’s Bug got rid of them
Good to know I released 3000 ladybugs tonight! Good timing!
That is the same bug I asked about on DSHGP FB. I just grab the stalk and squeeze them to kill...🙏🏻✌🏻❤️

You have to spray when it’s not going to rain. Our big market mama after I talked to they are using hydrogen peroxide mixed with water and spraying on.
Im just curious if Dawn and alcohol kill them so good, why not spray the plants and trees?
I was going to ask the same thing. Going around and racking them off takes way to much time if you have so much to do.
How about Dawn and Vodka?
Alcohol is a drying agent probably dry out the plant.
The alcohol will damage the crops.
Alcohol will kill the plant

I am so glad that they didn't reach your greenhouse!
We had grasshoppers like that last summer and it looks worse this year. Billions of baby grasshoppers. Sure can clean out a garden fast!
I've used my shop vac and a long extension cord to take care of them pretty effectively.
I hate bug Danny. When I see one, war is declared. You keep working hard. Keep prepping guys. Buy all you can now.
I was born here in N GA, but raised in N Alabama, and we never had them that bad that I can ever remember. My daddy would have had a fit if he came out and found those on his figs like that, too.
I don't even know the best way to get rid of them, because I've never seen them like that.
My grandmother used to spend hours doing this! I remember her with her cup full of bugs!
Wow, That's crazy. I was thinking...Grab an old vacuum cleaner and suck them off. Never seen anything like that
I haven't seen a stink bug in about 5 years. Watched your video, walked outside to pick okra and there was one! He has met his maker 😆
Wow that is amazing how many stink bugs you have! What proportions were the alcohol and dish soap?
2 tablespoons of alcohol 1 tablespoon of dish soap to a cup of water
Danny, Wanda, do you have any small paint brushes at the farm...like artists use, or ladies use for make-up. It would keep you from having to reach in and touch them, and maybe they'd fly off before you could knock 'em into the sudsy liquid in the cup. May God protect your produce and plantings. : /
Have you thought of trying a mini cordless vacuum cleaner? I’ve never tried that, but I’m wondering if that might work.
Can you make a spray solution and use it that way?
I’ve had them on my tomatoes and peppers 🌶.... I think the neem and dawn soap spray is helping? I think...
I found a lot of them on my wisteria tree. Bugs cover all flowers...Love the tree but i have to take it down. i scare of kudzu bugs will enter the house. I live in south California. I guess this bugs everywhere now. Haven't seen them last year.
You may know the kudzu bugs were first recorded in the USA in 2009 in GA. They were recorded in MS in 2012 but not in all counties. Infact some counties still haven't reported them. The county extensions ask people to watch and report of they are in a county that they haven't been recorded yet, I don't know your county but if you are one that didn't previous have the kudzu bug then it would be nice if you would call your county extension to tell them so that they can document it. This website has kudzu data that they are tracking at www.kudzubug.org/distribution-map/ Their data is behind because this year in April another agency reported the kudzu bug in Texas for the first time. The kudzu bug website also has a good identification page that shows all stages of development from egg to adult. They go through 5 instar before reaching adult and they have pictures of what they look like at those instar stages. www.kudzubug.org/identification/ It shows difference in female and male too.
I wonder if a small paint brush might work.
We don't have any bugs on the plaints in Sandy Hook but wow the house flies are crazy. How do you handle the flies!!!! It out first summer in Mississippi.
We use sticky traps.
@@DeepSouthHomestead thanks for the help we will try fly paper . And do praying Mantis help.
Another gift from China, stink bugs. Man, our stink bugs up here are twice the size. I found one in my smoker yesterday. Those must be just hatched. I get them all over my pumpkins, covering them.
They're just hatched.
Ewww, I just couldn't watch this video! Tried, and nope. Gives me the creeps. I thumbs-upped though 👍🙂 LOL
We dont call those "stink bugs", those are Japanese beetles. My dad has them covering his raspberry plants, but they arent eating the berries or harming the plants. Stink bugs are flat and smell horrible if you dont smash them before they spray you, or sometimes they will spray while you smash them. Nasty either way! Glad to see how you take care of them, because those things fly and hit you in the face! Lol
How frustrating to have all your hard work attacked like that continuously. The devil never rests.
I've never had any bugs but wasps in my fig tree
Maybe taking a propane torch to the grass and fry them will help.
Use Diatemaceous Earth, Food Grade. I sprinkle it on my plants. I, also, use it on my dog. You can mix it with distilled water in a spray bottle also. It works for me.
Wow!
Could you mix up a strong soap solution and spray the stink bugs?last year I had an infestation of stink bugs probably worse than you have I sprayed them with mala thion.
Your hands will be stinky. I bet you walked by that fig tree and did a double take. Egads!
Oh My, they are everywhere, Something is causing this and what could it be Danny? That is an infestation for sure, I feel for you and like you said it's spoken in the Word and the Word Don't Lie. Take Care You Two and keep us up to date👀💯💓😲💑✝
God has lifted his hand off this country.
