Green Stink Bug 10-21-26

Face to Face

A hitch hiker that ended up in the solar room
after we rescued as many hibiscuses as possible from underneath the tree that fell on our deck last week.

****************

"The green stink bug is one of many species of stink bugs. Like others in their family, they emit a foul odor when they are harassed or crushed. They eat a wide variety of plants. Like other true bugs, they have strawlike mouthparts adapted for sucking nutrients." Missouri Department of Conservation
