Gardening in S. Oregon and the population of these critters has exploded over the past 2 years. I hate to kill bugs for no reason, but the chickens won't touch them and I think they're the reason I didn't get any blackberries last year. Just found out that soapy water sprayed directly on them kills them, so unfortunately for the bordered plant bugs on my berries, the spray is on.

I've been wondering what type of bug this was for a few weeks now. I live near Olympia WA and have never seen one before until a few weeks ago when I spotted one one my indoor marijuana plant. He doesn't seem to be doing any physical damage to the plant what so ever but was just curious as to what he's actually feeding on and what, if any, effects he might have on it. Any info about him would be welcomed, thanks.

I just found an entire leaf-ful of the red nymphs on a bindweed plant I was pulling up here in Virginia. Never saw them before!
