Facts about Stink bugs

1. They are an introduced species that have reached plague proportions in recent years

2. They destroy fruit crops
3. In the fall they invade structures (houses) and hibernate
4. They emit an oil when alarmed, thus earning the name
5. They are suicidal around me

I have told them repeatedly that if I see them they are shortly thereafter going to be dead. (I capture and eliminate by drowning in water with soap added.) No stinkbug that I can reach will escape me if I have anything to say about it.

I must insert here that I do not kill lightly or with malice aforethought - I dislike killing on principle, but it must be done. It's them or us, and I vote for us (this time).
