I think this is a stink bug, but it seemed really big. Not sure how big those bugs get.

Yuck! I would have been screaming for hubby or son to come take care of that thing. :P You're very brave to get the photo.
Sometimes I bring those in on blackberries and they will stick thru a couple washings. They aren't very big and they don't taste good either!
Honnestly I prefer my cats, lol !
I don't think that's a stink bug. Perhaps a relative, though. He sure is ugly.
I have a n exterminator coming to my house tomorrow toomany bugs boo sandy6
Hi Barb! Bugs? Ugh... ;)
Blogtrotter is departing Armenia. It leaves you however with a view that Tsar Nicholas didn’t see… ;))
Have a great week!
Oooh, I wouldn't have gotten too close to him! That's so impressive that you have a book! (I see from yesterday's post.) Congrats! Is it new?
I think you are correct in its naming! have you ever squished one...they really do stink!! Interesting critter!! Bellefonte, huh? Cool, I grew up in Snow Shoe and now live outside of Philly! Small world!
I prefer the more dignified "shield" bug as a name for this critter. ;) At least I think I read somewhere stink bugs are also known as shield bugs because of their shield-like shape.
It looks pretty nasty to me and if it is a stink bug then I surely don't want to squish it to find out.Thanks for dropping by.
Saw you photo today. Sorry to say it is not a stink or shield bug, but a type of assassin bug. It is considered to be a beneficial insect because it feeds on pest insects. No need to worry about it or to spray.
Check my blog at http://blog.growingwithscience.com/?p=21 for a look at a young assassin bug (nymph) that is found in Arizona.
