Brown Marmorated Stink Bug: Invasive Pest Threatening Georgia Gardens

A homeowner confirmed the brown marmorated stink bug (BMSB) by its white-banded antennae. This invasive pest damages many fruits and vegetables, aggregates on homes in fall, and enters through cracks. Indoor removal: trap under a cup, slide card underneath, release outdoors—vacuuming leaves a stinky vacuum. Seal entry points. Control is difficult; spinosad, carbaryl, or permethrin may help. A simple trap design is suggested for experimentation.
