    My cat eats stink bugs... I barely see them around anymore... but, man do I hate changing the litter pan!
    Just a traveling cat in a tall black hat riding a goat. Nothing to see here.

    both my dogs and cats would eat them. Makes for stinky puppy kisses. I was probably sucking up 200 of the lil bastards every other day. Right next to my house was a soy field so there was about nothing i could do.

    I believe this year's issues are caused by the brown marmorated stink bug that arrived stateside from Asia in the late 90's rather than the green ones we used to squash when I was kid. The brown variety unfortunately has no natural predators.

    They remind me of my grandparents' house when I was a kid. They had a tree that would become completely infested with them once a year, it seemed.

    You know, if you need Neosporin for DE shaving you might want to brush up on the technique a bit!!

    Well, because the stink bug crawls around the safety razor, as the picture shows, I suppose!

    They are going away in my parts. I haven't seen a stink bug in two weeks maybe. But boy some days they were all over the place.

    haha nope I had it out because I was moving stuff around and went to grab my razor and I was looking the other way as I grabbed it and sliced the side of my finger pretty good. Figures my first cut isnt even from me shaving.

    The neighbor has a female boxelder tree. The boxelder bugs have been awful this year. I haven't found them in the house, but they claimed the patio. I am hoping the frost knocks them down real soon now.

    None in Kansas City either. We have made the top 15 list as one of the most dangerous cities. They have moved out.

    I'm still laughing about talking about stink bugs in the safety razor forum. Somebody will put stink bugs in their search engine and it will link them to Badger and Blade.

    Then the correct title should have been, "I hate Stink Bugs On My Shaving Gear"

    i just killed like 400 last month, they came from asia 1n 1999. they were shipped to allentown PA, from they they flew south for warmth and in the way have infested the east coast from maine to florida. best way to get them is to trap them in glass so they dont spray the stink, then flush them. they came thru my airconditioner vent holes. they dont bite, they suck on vegiies. but if scared they stink up the room, just spray air freshner and use alchol in spray bottle to knock out if too many to trap in glass. it took me 3 hrs of flushing and glass trapping them, but it was woth it. now i may get like 1 every 3 to 5 days...by the way when they landed on my fatboy and sivertip brush i said enuff is enuff so i snuffed them out.
