This investigation into the pattern of overwintering brown marmorated stink bugs (BMSB) used survey data collected between Dec 2013 and Mar 2014 from residents in two 4-story dormitories on the Rutgers University Cook Campus in New Brunswick, New Jersey, USA. Results suggest that a higher proportion of BMSB overwinters towards the top of urban structures than towards the ground level. This finding can be used by pest control operatives for targeted applications that will reduce the total amount of pesticides needed while still suppressing the majority of urban nuisance populations of BMSB. Sumario Esta investigacion sobre el patron de hibernacion del chinche cafe marmorado (CCM) utilizo los datos recolectados en un sondeo entre diciembre del 2013 y marzo del 2014 de los residentes de dos dormitorios de 4 pisos en la Universidad de Rutgers, Cook Campus en New Brunswick, Nueva Jersey, EE.UU. Los resultados sugieren que la mayor proporcion de CCM pasa el invierno en la parte superior de las estructuras urbanas que en el nivel del suelo. Este hallazgo puede ser utilizado por los trabajadores en el control de plagas para aplicaciones especificas que reduzcan la cantidad total de los plaguicidas necesarios y al mismo tiempo suprimiendo la mayoria de las poblaciones urbanas de CCM que molestan.
