I was shooting a couple and they just watched this huge stinkbug crawl up my leg and never told me. I noticed and gave Daniel the camera to capture the moment!
The stinkbugs went missing for most of the summer, but now we're teeming with them. They were all over the house, the bushes, and catching the ones that get in is a frequent annoyance.
Bah, Humbug! -
Stinkbug can be kept in a matchbox and is a handy tool against nasty people. When the scrooge arrives in my office, I shall excuse myself under the pretext of serving tea. Deliberately leaving the door ajar, I’ll tip-toe back with my small bug and give stinky a tight squeeze. Locking the door secretly from outside, I chuckle on what's going to happen next. If the horrendous odour brings on a migraine on the scrooge, I would be please. Returning my office, I smile and check on the scrooge in glee.
After capturing and stinging the stinkbug deep in the snowberry bush, she dragged it up to a good platform using her mandibles. From here it's a short flight to her nest, where the prey is stashed as provisions for her larvae.

Childhoods are plagued with random fears, they don't make much sense and usually stem from events of little importance. I used to be afraid of stinkbugs, a lot, in parts because of their low-pitched flying sound. But mostly for their depiction in Maya the Bee.
This is very similar to another green stinkbug in a different genus, Nezara viridula, however one can tell them apart by looking at the scent gland on the ventral surface. See BugGuide.

Nezara viridula (Linnaeus)
The southern green stink bug is one of the largest stink bugs. It can be found in gardens, field crops, and roadside flowers. Adults are up to 3/4 of an inch long and solid green in color.
I chased this poor little bugger trying to get a good photo but this is all I got.
It was into our screen in room...looks crablike with it's feet
and look at the eyes!

Creepy! I found this guy inside my freshly laundered socks. Which is pretty amazing, since I have the weird habit of tying one sock around its match, so that I never have to match socks. (I used to put one inside the other, but it wouldn't dry as well that way.) So I'm not sure how he was in there.
I put my sock on. Felt something in my foot. Thought it was a rock. Took my shoe and sock back off. Turned my sock inside out, and kinda flailed about and/or yelled. Of course my next instinct was to get the camera.
The bug is in a cd spindle lid, and that monster-looking larvae thing underneath and to the right is a phone cord.
Stinkbug, cd spindle, telephone cord.
