Why Stink Bugs Are a Particular Issue in North Vancouver
North Vancouver's forested mountain edge creates stink bug overwintering pressure similar to other forested-edge Metro Vancouver cities. The conservation areas adjacent to Grouse Mountain, the Lynn Headwaters, and the Seymour Demonstration Forest sustain stink bug populations in mature forest that migrate into adjacent residential in autumn. Properties in Canyon Heights, Lynn Valley, and Deep Cove at the forested residential edge see this autumn overwintering migration annually.
Deep Cove's isolated setting on Indian Arm with surrounding forested slopes creates particularly above-average stink bug pressure for properties adjacent to the forested hillsides.
Older Canyon Heights and Lynn Valley homes with aging eave and soffit construction carry the overwintering entry points that annual perimeter treatment combined with exclusion sealing reduces.
