In Episode #41 I will discuss the stink bugs, why they are getting in our houses, and what they eat.
The Brown Marmorated Stink Bug comes from China and Japan and did not get to the United States until 1995 or so. Already it has spread to 22 states.
They eat a lot of crops, fruit trees, vegetable plants, etc. But some eat other bugs including stink bugs.
