Suspend SC (Deltamethrin 4.75%) kills them but they die slowly and you
have to squirt them directly. Walking across a dry film layer of the
posion seems to have no effect.

But here's the rub: Everybody goes ballistic about their odor when
squished. Well, over the past seven days, I have squished about about
two dozen inside the house and at least 1,000 outside on the cedar
siding or in the garage with a fly swatter. I cannot smell a thing
even though possessing an excellent olfactory sense. Hell, I can
smell a fart at 20 yards. Guess I should be thankful small blessings
in dealing with this nuisance.

If I pick up and crush one in a tissue or grab one crawling down my
shirt the other day, my fingers smell but it is temporary. Odor does
not travel far. I've been using a hand held vacuum to pick-up those
that get in the house. Insecticides not recommended in article.
