These guys are devastating to some plants. They feed by piercing and sucking the plant’s juice. They are not a beneficial, predatory insect. Knock them into a coffee can of soapy water and lid it when you’re done. Your plant will be relieved.

This bug has attacked my obedient plant with a vengeance causing destruction of the small flowers that make up the flower spike. Now they have moved to another obedient plant in a different bed. Help. How do I get rid of them? I applied an insecticidal soap which was of no use but am reluctant to use a chemical insecticide. Suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks

Seen my first stink bug of the year and it turned out to be a Twice-stabbed Stink Bug, last 2 years I have not seen one of these and today he sits on the window ledge looking at me and my indoor flowers. Some people hate them but I think they are beautiful. I think Spring is here!
