ANNOYING, UNWANTED ROOMMATES

The Brown Marmorated Stink Bug (Halyomorpha halys)
 

For some reason early this year, we noticed that these guys weren't just warm weather pests, we had several in residence over the winter. There always seemed to be one lurking around the kitchen and now its offspring are turning up in unexpected places.

One early evening I was in the kitchen and had set down my glass of beer next to the Aerogarden to check on some food. I return to the couch with the beer and as I raised the glass for a sip, I saw that one of these guys has fallen into the glass. He is doing a backstroke. I pulled his scaly ass out and placed him on a napkin to dry. Not cool, dude.
