Brown Marmorated "Stink Bugs"
During the night, last night, I had one of these things fall from the ceiling onto my face. For about a week I have been alleviating any bored time by crushing these smelly obnoxious creatures on my deck and siding. I would say around 300 in 5 days. Needless to say, I had to search the entire interior of the house before I could go back to sleep.
Ten minutes ago one fell off the ceiling onto my head while I was at my desk. Theses things are a recent development, and not a welcome one. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brown_...ated_stink_bug I thought they had no natural predators here, but yesterday, I had the pleasure of watching one fall into a spider web, and although the spider was obviously put off by the odor. It would attack, retreat, attack again until it's victim died. And a very small spider. Maybe a local chef could come with a culinary application? ...Probably not! Although someone did eat an oyster once...
