DescriptionBrown marmorated stink bug feeding on apple.jpg
The brown marmorated stink bug shown here is feeding on an apple on Aug. 29, 2012. This pest is a major economic threat to fruit crops, garden vegetables, and man ornamentals. U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) Agricultural Research Service (ARS) scientists are fighting back by developing traps, sequencing the bug’s genome, and testing parasitic wasps as biocontrols.

The brown marmorated sting bug is easily recognized by many because it’s invading out homes. But the pest, shown here feeding on an apple, is also a major economic threat to fruit crops, garden vegetables, and man ornamentals. ARS scientists are fighting back by developing traps, sequencing the bug’s genome, and testing parasitic wasps as biocontrols. USDA photo by Stephen Ausmus
