RESCUE! Stink Bug Attractant

Two stink bug attractant lures used together, plus a replacement collar, for the compatible RESCUE! outdoor trap.

Renew an existing outdoor trap

RESCUE! Stink Bug Attractant is a refill for the matching outdoor RESCUE! Stink Bug Trap. The package contains two AttracStik lures, used together, and a replacement collar. That combination supplies the stated seven weeks of attractant. The trap body is separate. This pack makes sense when the existing capture body is available and the lure needs replacement, rather than when the buyer needs an entirely new trap setup.

Attraction and capture have different jobs

The pheromone lure draws targeted pest stink bugs toward the trap. The capture body then holds the insects; the package states that no killing agents are used and captured insects dehydrate inside. The lure is odor-free to people. It is not applied to foliage, and it does not create a treated coating around a plant. Its purpose is an outdoor capture point, with the compatible trap doing the physical work of retaining the insects.

Outdoor activity is the relevant problem

The package identifies adult stink bugs before they enter homes and younger generations that damage gardens and fruit trees. This gives the trap two useful contexts: insects active around outdoor plants and adults moving toward buildings. The manufacturer specifically explains that stink bugs already inside do not respond to its pheromone lure. A room full of overwintering insects therefore calls for a different response from renewing an outdoor trap.

Seasonal behavior explains the distinction

Some pest stink bugs, including brown marmorated stink bugs, seek shelter in buildings as adults. University Extension describes their seasonal aggregation around structures and the use of two-part pheromone lures to attract adults and nymphs outdoors. That biology explains why the location and stage of the insect matter when choosing a trap. It does not establish which species is present on a particular property, or promise that one trap will stop insects from entering a home.

Choose a refill for the problem it addresses

For an owner maintaining the compatible system, the seven-week pack restores its attraction component while retaining the reusable trap body. For insects already indoors, it is not an indoor lure treatment. For damaged fruit or garden plants, it is a capture tool rather than a spray applied to the crop. Those distinctions help match the refill to an outdoor stink bug problem without confusing attraction with a guaranteed level of plant protection.

Directions for use

The trap is intended for use outdoors to prevent the stink bugs from doing damage in your garden or getting inside your house. Once stink bugs are inside your house, they do not respond to the pheromone lures.
