Stink bugs are a menace in the garden and maddening in the home. They damage fruit, vegetables and farm crops – but when they invade the indoors in colder weather, they really raise a stink. With no effective natural enemies, stink bugs have been discovered in 33 states to this point.
Stink Bugs have a beak that they use to perforate and siphon the juices out of fruits and vegetables. They use their sharp beak to bore holes in apples, corn, soy beans and any other vegetable in the fields. The current apple crop in Pennsylvania has suffered 30% damage courtesy of these voracious hitchhikers.
