Stink bugs are harmless but a nuisance. They come indoors in the fall to stay warm. They do not feed on anything indoors and they do not breed indoors. All that happens outside. Several years ago we were finding 10-20 a day in our RV. Like mhs4771, I put them in the black tank. On recent trips we only find 1 or 2 a month. They stay hidden when it is cold. When the inside of the RV warms up, like when the sun is beating down on an outside wall, they become active. Someone mentioned Box Elder bugs. Like stink bugs, they are harmless, do not eat indoors and do not breed indoors. They don't like to cross a dusting of borax but you need a place to put the borax so it doesn't get tracked all over the place. That approach works well at home where we put it on the deck outside the kitchen slider. I feed Box Elder bugs to the black tank too.
