\"\"<\/a>It\u2019s definitely not hot and humid outside, and you can tell that some of the summer bugs are not quite as annoying as they were just a few short weeks ago.\u00a0 But one annoying pest has ramped up its annoying behavior for many New Jersey residents.\u00a0 The stink bug<\/a> is stinking up the joint!<\/p>\n

While visiting a friend the other day, we decided to enjoy the cooler afternoon temperatures as we sat out on her NJ deck.\u00a0 It\u2019s not an exaggeration when I tell you that there were well over 100 stink bugs<\/a>, climbing the screens, walking the deck railing, crawling on the siding, hanging from the gutter, and flying into our heads.\u00a0 There we sat, knowing that these shield-shaped bugs were ready to emit their nauseating odor if we dared shoo them away.<\/p>\n

Stink bugs<\/a> have had a grip on New Jersey as well as many other states the past few years.\u00a0 These crop damaging pests have been munching away on summertime treats like tomatoes, peppers, corn, peaches, and beans.\u00a0 In Kentucky, soybean fields are so infested and damaged by stink bugs that entomologists are warning farmers to expect smaller crops this year.\u00a0 Stink bugs have a straw-like mouthpart that will suck out the juices from soft fruits and vegetables.\u00a0 Tomatoes and peppers that are attacked by stink bugs are left with hard spots on the fruit while corn and peach crops have been demolished by these stinky pests.\u00a0 Stink bugs <\/a>not only devastate crops, they will also damage many other types of plants that you typically find around New Jersey homes and businesses.<\/p>\n

Stink bugs<\/a> were not always a problem for New Jersey residents.\u00a0 They were transported here by accident via packing material from their homelands of China, Korea, and Japan.\u00a0 These gray shield shaped bugs arrived in the US about 15 years ago.<\/p>\n

Please check back on Friday for the conclusion.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
