Default Stink bugs

Hi,

We live in the NNE suburbs of Philadelphia, PA. The last few years my
vegetable garden has been overrun with stink bugs. I try not to spray
as much as possible but have even resorted to this to try and cut down
on the population but to no avail. During this past winter, I've had
very large stink bugs just just show up inside our home. We totally
cleared the vegetable garden this fall and put this in the composts.
My composts are holes in the ground. The top of the compost piles are
chopped up leaves from the fall.

Does anyone know why I'm getting overrun with these beasts? Any ideas
for cleanup? And why would they be showing up in the house in the
middle of the winter?

Thanks for your help.
