Brown Marmorated Stink Bug

Gardens, agricultural fields, orchards, and indoors during cold weather

Herbivorous; feeds on plant sap from fruits, vegetables, leaves, and ornamental plants using piercing-sucking mouthparts

Attracted to warmth, seeks shelter indoors during winter (overwintering), releases a foul-smelling chemical defense when threatened or crushed

Pest to crops and gardens causing feeding damage; indoor nuisance to humans, but harmless as it does not sting, bite, or transmit diseases
