I live in a trailer, and its more of the travel kind and its not well made. In winter we get mold and summer we get blazing heat. However the worst part is the bug infestations in autumn and spring. Stink bugs being the main infestation.

These guys manage to crawl through any crack, and i have a hard time killing them cause their smell is awful. I just spent 10 minutes hosing the side of my trailer in hopes it would get them away, but they just keep coming back.

Does anyone have tricks or tips for getting rid of bugs, keeping them out, or finding how they come in? Ive found that grabbing them with paper towels and flushing them kills them and keeps the smell to a minimum, but with how many there are its inefficient, same with drowning.

Ive never heard of this, i will have to try it out. Thank you so much!!
Best of luck! I doubt it will kill everything. I had a problem with roaches at a previous apartment. Management was lousy and wouldn't spray. This helped. Not everything, but with a lot.

Yeah Diatomaceous earth is definitely something to try, it helped the flea problem in my house :)
