Where does the Stink Bug come from?

First collected in Allentown in 1998, the Stink Bug, like many nuisance insects was accidentally introduced to eastern Pennsylvania from its native home in China, Japan, Korea and Taiwan.  At home in Asia, the Stink Bug is reported to do damage to a variety of tree fruits such as Apples, Peaches and Citrus fruits.  Here they appear to be nothing more than an unwelcome pest, invading our homes and showing up, uninvited, at late summer picnics.
