Box Elder Bugs

They Didn’t Leave—They Moved In: The Truth About Box Elder Bugs in Winter

April 30, 20261 min read

They thought the box elder bugs were gone.

The clusters disappeared from the siding in late October. The family in Draper assumed the cold had taken care of it.

Then March came.

Box elder bugs started appearing on the windows. Then the light fixtures. Then the upstairs bathroom - crawling out from inside the walls.

They hadn't gone anywhere. They'd overwintered in the wall voids and attic. The warmth woke them up - and they emerged from the inside out.

We did a full exterior treatment and sealed the key entry points. That was the last spring they had a problem.

The fall window is the right time to treat. Before they disappear into your walls.
