I hope there is a GUI software package , with which to format a usb drive,
similar to gparted , used in GNU/Linux systems
Can it be done by using StressDisk????

There's got to some sort of format tool GUI for freeBSD but i couldn't tell you where to find one. If you are stuck,gparted is already in Ghost BSD.
enter 'gpart show' in the terminal.That will display the drives mounted
❯ gpart show
=> 40 976773088 ada0 GPT (466G)
40 512 1 freebsd-boot (256K)
552 971528192 2 freebsd-zfs (463G)
971528744 5234688 3 freebsd-swap (2.5G)

If usb plugged in.it'll show,too.Then.all has to be done in the terminal.gpart not the same in BSD as in Linux. Here's a link. Not sure the PITA (pain in the ###) rating on this.Doesn't look too bad,though.
