Chicago city hall there's plenty of politicians that are called human stink bugs

I liked his candor of being honest, instead of making something up. He could have run with he grew up in a middle-class home

[carolyng]

Here in Chicago I sprayed one on my window and the odor smells like severe bad breath. It is terrible and your house will fill up with that odor if you attack them. An attack on one and suddenly hundreds will swarm in that same space and wow

[drjekelmrhyde]

They're not in the city, but in Palatine, I just got rid of two day.

[GeoFishing]

An accurate story very interesting 🤔 What’s the catch 👀👀

[robertstonebreaker]

My cats don’t even like them but they will go after flys .

[victorfontaine]

Until the next invasive species shows up on our doorstep from another country. I guess the cost of running a nation of imports from all over the world. They all come here and never leave.

[Annabird]

I just dampen a paper towel, grab them, and toss them back out in the grass

[streetlegalsprintcar]

They weren't in the US last year. 🤔

[davidlanham]

Did no one see the bug shoot farther bubbles at:52?

[debracisneroshhp]

Well, I guess he's not much of an "expert'' if he doesn't know what [their] 'purpose' is(?). 😳😋

[shutinalley]

They're a pain in the ass for gardens. Get rid of um by squishing them. They're from Asia. They hopped rides on cargo ships.

For 37 years I never seen that bug
Man made bug 😂
