Why Stink Bugs Are a Particular Issue in Langley
Langley is arguably the highest stink bug pressure municipality in Metro Vancouver. The combination of its massive Agricultural Land Reserve with berry farms, greenhouses, and orchard operations, and its residential-agricultural interface throughout the township, creates stink bug source populations at agricultural densities that no purely urban Metro Vancouver city experiences.
Berry farms, greenhouse operations, and orchards in Langley's ALR sustain brown marmorated stink bug populations that are orders of magnitude larger than urban or forested-edge source populations. When autumn temperatures drop, the migration from these agricultural fields into adjacent residential creates stink bug pressure that resembles agricultural pest management rather than typical residential pest control.
Properties in Brookswood, Fernridge, Willowbrook-area, Aldergrove, and throughout the township adjacent to ALR agricultural operations are all in migration path.
