Bedbugs, Stinkbugs, et al Wed, 01/12/11 11:16 AM (permalink)
The USA is getting eaten alive, bedbugs, stinkbugs, ladybugs, gypsy moths, the damage they cause both physical and mental is huge. Stinkbugs are driving my wife over the edge. I despise them but Gypsy Moths and the damage they are doing to my beautiful trees on my property, not to mention much of the entire east coast, makes me furious. I see very little funding or at least hear very little about any attempts to eradicate these enemies. Your thoughts?

    Stink bugs are starting to cause a lot of crop damage in the mid-Atlantic & NE.
     
    They are an illegal import from China, came in a few years ago and have been spreading.

      Saw an article about 3 townships here in South NJ that were to be sprayed for Gypsy Moths this Spring.
       
      Stinkbugs - no preventative measure exists... You can kill them one by one - but their friends will keep coming. I killed at least 300 of them this past year!
