Understanding Boxelder Bugs

Boxelder bugs are odd-looking black and red bugs in the shape of a grain of rice, with legs and antennas. If you see one boxelder bug, there are likely hundreds more nearby. They often clump together in a group for safety and to reproduce. Boxelder bugs appear primarily during the fall months and swarm like crazy around the sunniest parts of your house. If you have a maple tree species in your yard, you are likely to have boxelder bugs nearby. Boxelder bugs love the seeds of maple trees and feed on the juice found inside. Therefore, you will see boxelder bugs most active on warm sunny days during the fall. During the winter months, adult boxelder bugs hibernate in the cracks and crevices of buildings.
