He needed to keep moving the bug to the next spot to clean the dust off of the entire base of the lamp. I loath stink bugs! But if I knew that I could get them to do the dusting, I think that we could strike a deal not resulting in their death.
Yeah, they stink a little, but Iโd rather crush them then have them randomly land on me. Theyโre flight patterns and thought processes are to erratic for my liking.

Yes, and they taste fucking horrible. Had one of these little assholes fly into my burrito when I wasn't looking. Felt something crunch, was trying to remember what I put on my burrito, then the taste hit me, I knew exactly what had happened.
This was in Roanoke, Va they got really bad there for a few years. I remember in the fall, the side of the house that faced west would be covered in them. They were trying to stay warm, literally hundreds. One of the only things I do not miss about that part of the country.
They smell kinda like rotting leaves if they spray you or get crushed.

They have a musty smell, but I donโt think itโs all that strong or bad. Personally the little Asian beetles (ladybug impersonators) smell worse and then there are the long, skinny stink bugs that come with the Asian beetle swarms. Those ones spray and will stink up a room like rotting fruit for days.

I wrote my finals work during the last 18 hours. I had the idea, I had all the info, but 0 word count 20 h before deadline. There was 10 points for poster. I didnโt have time for the poster (my girlfriend did it but in the wrong format, I included it but it wasnโt counted). There was barely enough time to put references which might or might not have supported my statements. Somehow I managed to create a passable mathematical model to calculate failure in very new materials that simply didnโt have such models created for them yet. To be frank, absence of such a model was what caused me to procrastinate till the last day when I said fuck it, something is better than nothing, letโs do it. I passed.
90% of my coursework was done on last day and submitted minutes before deadline. For one work that had to be posted by mail in paper I drove hundreds of miles to deliver it myself as, of course, I was writing it when it should have been in the post. Yep, engineer.
If people knew how much of the modern world was bodged together by a junior engineer trying to hit a deadline they'd probably all go live in the woods.
If people knew how much incompetent human assery went into most of society's critical functioning, they'd have a psychotic break.
Or if they realized that yes, there are very good engineers or doctors - but the ones that barely passed their grades and the really bad ones get jobs too, once they get into the wild!
Maybe the docs do, but most of the engineers with bad grades (realitively speaking) are not able to get a job in engineering - unless they got a family connection in industry.
This hits home. I am not a genius but I've gone through 5 co-op rotations at 2 companies and I'm amazed how little competence it takes to be at the helm. If anything, it's proven to me that all you have to do to be successful is compete with an established company that's comfortable with their inefficiencies. (And have money to start doing that, probably the hardest part)
Or how many people die when student doctors make mistakes during their internships. Real life bug fixes through trial and error don't work well with flesh.
This right here coupled with the fact that engineering work is more theoretic and less working with hands is why I'm thinking hard about going from electrical engineering and just settling for being an electrician. That or you know... Psychology and Philosophy.

But seriously yeah you still need to be a math god before graduation. It's the only subject I don't yet understand why I'm studying, because the only computer related science we learned that involved mathematics is coding/decoding, compressing, program runtime calculation and none of them required advanced mathematics. I'm sure they'll pop their head up eventually tho.

After you start doing triple integrals and matrix math and other stuff at that level, it doesn't get much harder I think. Just different topics around the same level
Sorry But linear algebra kicked my ass (and no I'm not talking about the baby one you take in your first year...) But it probably had to do with how theoretical my prof was... Like... We're engineers dude? APPLIED sciences... Not theoretical mathematicians .... Ugh
It really depends on what you want to do. So you want to install systems? You can make good money as an electrician but you will have to SOIL for a while I til you know enough to teach someone else and open your own company aka smarten up! As an engineer, you wouldn't have to strain your body like electricians do. Either way I think it's fulfilling work, and both can potentially pay well if you play your cards right. Whatever you do, use your brain to strategize and get somewhere where you're not working with your body when you're 50 cuz your body will give out before you retire unless you have a really good physique and sturdy ass body.
Well right now I do weight lift and box and shit ton of other physical activities, so I'm banking on my body lasting me a while. I do like working with my hands, but the idea of being an electrician to me just means that I'll be either going into peoples houses or installing systems for companies till I can hire people to do it.
The money though man! And as an electrical engineer, I can say that the actual job can be pretty fun when you design something, put it together on paper, then watch as the filthy peasants (/s) make it. Of course, it can also be stressful as shit. Thereโs a reason engineers make a good living; itโs not an easy job, but itโs a really satisfying one.
Nope. I was talking about major in psychology with a minor in philosophy.

I have a similar experience, I think a lot of students experience sleep deprivation at least once while doing an assignment, mine, like yours was particularly bad though!
I did my 20K dissertation in 4 days with no prep, hadnโt even formatted my data Iโd collected over 5 months.
Trying to look through 20 journals and type as coherently as possible while micro-sleeping every 5 mins, then losing all short term memory and having to sift through the journals again to remember where you were at.
Didnโt sleep once, didnโt have caffeine either because it would make me crash, I just stood up and walked around my room what felt like every 10 mins. Probably ran the cold water tank out from cold showers, eventually cold showers stopped working and I had to muscle through.
If you have ever stayed up for multiple days itโs hard, but multiple days in the same room doing a monotonous task isnโt something Iโd wish on my worst enemy, it was literally torture.
Buddy, do yourself a favor and do it now. Anything is better than that hellhole of a week I put myself through.
I used to be proud of my ability to push out stupidly long projects in stupidly short amount of times--I am not proud of that because above all I just remember holy fuck did I suffer for it. Plus I was lucky enough to have a twin brother who knows my writing style to look over it and help smooth out the inevitable writing errors, run-ons, etc.
It's one thing to write a 20-30 page term paper in a couple of nights. It's entirely another to have to write a whole thesis in 7 days. I barely managed to get it done, and that was with the aforementioned lack of sleep, help, and a good amount of adderall. That experience finally taught me my lesson about procrastinating big assignments, I was burnt out for the next month. If you haven't started yet, 20 days gives you just enough time to get through it at a more reasonable, daily pace of 4-5 hours a day without all of the consequences. Thank God my board didn't ask a too many long questions because my brain was so fried that I would have started to sound like I was high if i had to talk for a while.
Get to work on it now, otherwise you're probably going to have to take an extension into next semester.
Dude it's just the last part that I'm procrastinating I already have 73 pages it's just the reviewing, bibliography, and the last chapter I'm putting off. Having nights with panic attacks are killing me. Thank you so much for the advice man.
Oh okay lol I feel you, yeah you haven't got much left. You could knock that out relatively easily within the next few days, just get it over with ya know?

Yeah, I lucked out... The idea there might be a final outside finals week didn't even enter my mind. But then we had a specific week for finals, and in the 3 years of classes no class had decided randomly to take the final early (at the time I didn't think they were allowed to XD).

Engineering students everywhere: "NOTHING ELSE IS AS HARD AS ENGINEERING! WE'RE THE BEST AND YOUR DEGREE WAS THE EQUIVALENT OF A VACATION FOR US. WE DOUBLE MAJORED IN GATEKEEPING"
I think the vast majority of engineering students are aware that most other degrees also involve similar amounts of time and energy to complete.
I think the 'gatekeeping' to which you referred is actually an expression of the way that many people in scientific fields do not value non-scientific endeavours as highly, and so may see a similar amount of hard work in those endeavours as worth less than their own work.
Though I'm not trying to justify this, it is probably a product of normal human psychology, as are a great many other regrettable behaviours, and is not confined to students of any one particular subject.
Lol but itโs true. Source: I have Electrical Engineering + Law degrees. Everyone in law school thought it was the hardest thing ever, except the engineers. I could have done law school in my sleep. (Med school is pretty hard though, from what I can tell)
I'm an eng student. Its currently 5:30am, I'm working on an assignment that was assigned two weeks ago and is due at noon. I started 5 hours ago and am 2 energy drinks and a coffee in.
Yet here I am on Reddit.
Can confirm.
Edit: For those following a long at home, assignment finished with 24 mins to spare and I'm off to bed.
I procrastinated so much when I was an engineering student that I finally just decided to apply for an engineering job to get out of school. Got that job over 25 years ago and never looked back.
Now after 25 years I'm thinking of procrastinating myself into becoming a doctor.

I hold myself to the standard of two hours of research per day including weekends uninterrupted, and focused. More if possible, but always at least two hours just to keep progress happening. Marking, procrastination and side projects all fight for my time. Once a week I usually have a 16 hour binge when there is new idea to implement / when motivation graces me with its presence. During this period I don't eat and the bathroom becomes only a vague memory.

I was a major procrastinator in undergrad. When I got to dental school there was no procrastination because if you weren't studying a minimum of 3 hours every single night plus most of the weekend there was no possible way to absorb all of the material in time for the test.
if you weren't studying a minimum of 3 hours every single night
me during pathology actually, I started procrastinating my current semester, teaching a lot of clinical protocols. Our professors seem to be really lazy too, they always start class with: you're gonna forget by the time you enter hospital, I don't care if you don't learn anything. Most people learn better through first-hand experience anyways
All engineers are lazy because the whole purpose engineering something is to make it so you donโt have to do something.

LPT: These are called stink bugs.
They emit a smell when threatened or killed by being squished, and that smell attracts other stink bugs. The best way to get rid of them? Grab a paper towel and grab them quickly. Throw em into the toilet and flush them. No stink. No attracting them. Theyre an invasive species from China and they have no predators. Except for me. I am their end. And i will stop at nothing until they all are vanquished

You flush paper towels down toilets?! I need better toilets D:
That's false. Toilet paper is designed to come apart when wet to go through pipes and tight spaces. Paper towels, wet wipes and things like that are built a lot stronger and aren't meant to come apart when wet. This leads to clogged pipes, backed up systems and loads of other issues.
If you didn't, why would you reply to a comment that specifically was about septic systems? Hell, even if you have sewers, you still run the risk of clogging the pipes beneath your house and flooding it.
I doubt it lol House was built on a new plot of land in 2003, everything was brand new and high end and I remember as a kid the guy told us it was โthe Cadillac of plumbing systemsโ

Best way to get rid of them is to actually get a shallow dish of water and mix soap and dirrect a light over the top of it at night. Theyre attracted to the light and will fall in the water dying from the soap. I have hundreds of these annoying dive bombers every year.
[deleted] ยท 2 points ยท Posted at 21:14:49 on November 6, 2018 ยท (Permalink)
Ive heard the soap thing as well and tried that but they just keep on truckin along. What kinda soap?
I use Ajax, dawn may be counter productive considering they clean wild life with it? Not sure on that.
I believe the soap doesn't actually kill them, my bad on miswording this, I think what actually happens is that it breaks the tension of the water and forces them to drown. So maybe try more soap next time? You can also try adding vinegar to it as well, I know this also helps kill of bugs, but may drive some away.
I found a solution to help get rid of them. It works better on Box Elder Beetles but these guys dislike it too.
In a spray bottle mix 1 cup of warm water, 1/2 cup of vinegar and 1/4 of dish soap (preferably anti bacterial). Mix together then spray them. It dehydrates them.
Stink bugs don't die immediately but Box Elders do. After spraying a month ago, I have only seen a few of each bothering my house unlike the orgy that was before.

They may be having predators now since theyre so abundant. But for years they had no predators because of the smell they emit. Ive never seen a spider eat one before. But i also dont deny that they would
So, spiders can smell? I just assumed they didn't. But I dont see any benifit from not being able to smell. They breathe so why not. I guess I just didn't know they were bothered by smell. Since they eat dead or dying stuff, you know.
Kind of odd that they have evolved to make a smell that attracts more of them when they die. It is like they are saying "hey guys, I died by some giant thing in this place so it is totally safe for you guys to come."

The problem is there is no effective predator for stink bugs. It's the same problem with all foreign invasive species. Rabbits have predators but that didn't stop them from overwhelming Australia. Kudzu destroys thousands of trees.

I donโt know about this particular type of stankbug because we donโt see them here, but the kind we have donโt really stink when they do their โdefensive sprayโ (only makes the dogs leave them alone); but if you squash them it has a pretty distinct skunk-like smell.

I hiked the PCT last year and saw a bunch of these. I'd see them sticking their butts in the air as I passed and it took me days to realize they were spraying stink. It did smell, but just kinda like a mild vinegar smell that I was attribute to a certain type of plant I kept seeing before I realized it was the bug.

Different types different smells. The ones is Europe are awful. Never ever kill them if youโre in Europe
From SD but currently live in the Midwest. When people were telling me about this kind of stinkbugs I was confused cause they look nothing like the ones in use to. I dislike both though.

In the Northeast US you get these guys every summer. They end up everywhere! Our hunting camp will have an army of them crawling and hanging off the screens once it starts getting warm. And no matter how much you try to keep them from getting inside, they somehow eventually make their way in. The smell they give off when you crush them is kind of hard to describe. Iโve always thought it had a strange, almost almond like quality to it - but not in a good way - sort of sickly sweet and it tends to linger in your nose - it's an organic acridness that is hard to compare other smells to.
i think it smells like sweaty feet, i wish it smelled like a bar of soap

They smell exactly like strong apple cider vinegar here in Seattle. Itโs actually kinda cool. Just give their back a little rub and voila. It has a sweet, sharp pungency that comes on strong but doesnโt seem to linger long.
Also, I always forget they fly til one is coming right at my face in this awkward impossible-to-predict loopty way of flying. Makes me flail around, scream and run every time.

Theyโre extremely invasive here in the US. Iโd find them in my room almost nightly at one point a couple years back
Ah I see, I don't know if ours have predators, I guess they do because I've never seen a lot of them. Just now and then.
I just read up about your ones now.
In China, Trissolcus japonicus, a parasitoid wasp species in the family Scelionidae, is a primary predator. This species is not currently present in the U.S., but is undergoing study for possible introduction.
The major problem with this idea is the possibility that japonicus will also become an invasive species with no native predators. Before introducing the Chinese wasp, scientists are trying to find natural predators of the stink bug already present in the United States. To do so they have studied other species of parasitoid wasps native to the United States. They found that several other species of the parasitoid wasps attacked stink bug eggs in Virginia soybean fields.
Researchers have also experimented with different spider species as well as the Wheel bug. Several spider species attacked both the eggs and adult stink bugs. Pill bugs eat stinkbug eggs. The wheel bug, however, was the most voracious predator and attacked the eggs and adults more consistently
Actually there are wasps that don't sting people and go about their business without ever wanting to even be around us. The flying dick heads you're thinking about are your standard wasps.

I live in Minnesota and I've never seen one. Do they not like cold weather?
I believe they are related but a different species, these are native to china, korea and japan, and are a massive agricultural pest in the us since they have almost no preditors here.
but why most people hate them is because this particular species loves to go into your house around fall and come out in spring, to the point that some houses have been found with thousands of them in them, in my house we usually have about 100 visible around the house in early fall and late spring, plus they smell and are clumsy as hell and will fly into anything including food and drinks and on one occasion my mouth.

I was just thinking the same thing. Iโm from Scotland but live in north east England, maybe they get them down south? Unless youโre from the south in which case I donโt know.
Well I'm from Northern England living in Scotland, so maybe it's a southern thing. Although I don't remember seeing any when I've ever been down south.
Just looked it up. Apparently we have two types, one of which is native only to the south. They're both green though, and smaller, so maybe thats why we don't recognise them.
I'm down south and we definitely get the smaller, bright green ones in the summer.
I didn't realise it was the same bug, the one in the video looks like it's twice the size of the ones that I see and the colour is totally different.

South East here and I see them a lot in the summer.
I'm in the middle and can remember at least several times in the past few years where they have been on my washing on the line. They really like my shrubs such as the Red Robin so maybe if you don't have similar they don't thrive. I have seen loads of different patterns and sizes. I really like bugs and spend a lot of time in my garden so maybe more likely to notice them. They are a little annoying because once they are on you their 'feet'? Really stick to you and it's hard to get them off.

They're harmless, but you basically can't do anything with your windows open at night without having those fuckers rush in and bang their hard shells against your head...
The ones here in Texas smell bad. You know when there's a stink bug around and it's stressing when you can't find it because the smell won't go away until you do find it and move it or it leaves. When I was a kid, I had one crawl on me. I remember pulling it off and the stench...ugh....horrible, nasty stuff. They've gotten bigger since then and more brightly colored.

Theyโre not Native US bugs, theyโre invasive. Destroying all kinds of crops at alarming rates. Canada most likely has them too by now. Or soon, unfortunately.
In PA as kids we occasionally saw green ones in the 80s. I didn't encounter the brown ones until the mid-90s.
Initially it seemed to be a plague affecting only me. I lived in a third-floor bedroom in an old house surrounded by trees, and they got inside constantly. No one I talked to had ever heard of them, and I only knew to call them stink bugs from seeing (smelling) them as a kid.
A couple years later, they were everywhere, feared by everyone.
Apparently the first specimen in the US was collected in PA in 1998. I was definitely seeing them by '95 at the latest.

Maybe you were ground zero. Any overseas trips or imported packages around that time? This could all be your fault!
Just kidding. But I live in Los Angeles and we got the brown widow first and my backyard was completely infested before I could even get much info on them when Iโd search for them but the very first reports of them began in 2007. First we had black widows but the brown widows beat them out once they arrived. Apparently theyโre more aggressive but less venomous? I may be remembering that wrong but they for sure were battling the regular black widow population.
And just cause ive already generalized to other invasive things. This local little tropical plant nursery unwittingly released these teeny tiny, talking rice grain size, frogs that made really loud annoying noise and began terrorizing the local neighborhoods! Theyโre so tiny they can hide really easily so they have been able to spread easily.
If I was ground zero I deserve nothing less than death by stink bugs. There was a Korean church on the other side of the woods behind my house though...
It feels like the US is unwittingly living out There Was an Old Lady Who Swallowed a Fly. Maybe we'll get lucky and the perfect invader will arrive to eat the widows, frogs, and stink bugs, before fucking off to Canada.

Depending on your vacuum cleaner, it would either get deposited into a large holding area and then that's it, or get swirled around and likely shredded and stink the place up.
We call it a stink bug in Michigan. They are annoying as fuck during cold months, and as the name implies, they smell awful if they're agitated or squished. You pretty much need to capture them in a vacuum or a container to avoid your room smelling awful. My house isn't infested or anything, but I have to deal with one every few weeks. It's so annoying because I live upstairs and have to carry the vacuum up every time. They also fly towards lights so when I'm on my computer they divebomb my screen like Pearl Harbor and it scares the shit out of me.

What we need are some iguanas that eat them. But then we need to get rid of the iguanas so we'll get some snakes. Then some gorillas to eat the snakes and they simply die off the winter.

Even cats know what they are. They might be interested at first, but once they examine it up close they walk away from it like "I'm not touching that smelly bastard"
Empty water bottles do the trick for me. You trap them in the mouth of the bottle, they freak out and let go of the surface they are on, but then you seal it tight for no smell.

I put on a jacket a few years ago and felt something weird on the opposite side of my pocket in the interior. It felt like a ball of lint stuck in the corner of the pocket, i randomly decided to squeeze it to feel it. Nope. Smashed a stink bug in my jacket pocket and it was so wet and gross. My fingers smelled so bad and it took a while of washing for the smell to go away.
Fucking Stink Bugs. Squash em and your room smells like death for a week. Pick em up and they freak out. I've learned how to take care of them without them spewing their rancid wind, but it ain't pretty.
I usually just pick them up quick with a napkin and throw them out the window. They aren't like flies where it's a real challenge to catch one. It's actually not hard at all unless they're flying around.

I once had one crawling around in my laundry. I was able to pick up the sock it was standing on and just go to the window and flick the bug as hard as I could and he just stayed put. I had to basically whack the sock against the window frame as hard as I could to get it to go out. They are very happy to stay put even with serious agitation.
Flush them, they have no ecological function except destroying crops. Took me a while to get stop feeling sorry for them and just eliminate them, when they started appearing in these parts, but they really are awful creatures.
fill a spray bottle with soapy water. take off the nozzle and use the pump as a sort of bridge for the stinkbug. once it climbs on, shove the pump and bug back into the bottle. Repeat ad infinitum.

Stink bugs are dumb as rocks. They just fly and zoom and they donโt dodge for nothinโ - which quite often means they come in full steam ahead right at your eyeballs. Ugh, they are so annoying - and they can stick around for a long ass time.

That's a brown stinkbug. They're the most chill bugs you'll ever find: they don't bite, don't run away, and don't even wanna fly when you throw them with the tip of your foot. Takes a lotta convincing to scare one away.
Bad parts? They breed like crazy, get everywhere, infest the entire town during harvest season (previously in wheat fields) and you'll soon be up to your ankles in the fuckers. Hope you don't have any holes in your walls.
They also stink, but you gotta squish'em and smell them directly to notice. I wouldn't mind the little guys at all if they weren't the rabbits of the insect kingdom.

In Texas, an extremely easy case of mistaken identity with these guys can mean life or death. We also have what is known as "kissing" bugs because of their tendency to bite around the lips. They carry a very deadly virus which spreads a lot like Lyme Disease.
Dark plot twist: It's actually been infected by a cordyceps fungus which mind-controls its host to climb up high and then kills it, eventually erupting from its hosts' corpse, to spread its spores as far as possible.

If you wanna kill these fuckers without getting sprayed or stinking up a room for days, do the following. Clean out a small plastic butter tub. Fill it 2/3rds with a nice smelling dish soap. Go hunting in warm dry places in the house and use the plastic top to flick the bug into the soap tub. Snap that top on quickly. Give a gentle shake and they drown. If you're lucky, they won't spray until after their sprayer is submerged in soap. When the tub gets too full of bug carcasses, dump it and repeat. A few years ago I killed 30+ of these bastards that were trying to Winter it out in the nice cozy dry attic.
Whatever you do, don't hit them, squish them, capture them in a tissue or even look at them funny or they will spray you with their pungent ass juice. Don't try to just flush them either, unless you like your bathroom to stink worse than actual stink, since they tend to float on water.

Actual LPT:
Make a mixture of rubbing alcohol, dish soap and water. Put it in a spray bottle, next time you see one give him a few squirts and they just die pretty quick no smell.
These are the dumbest insects imaginable. They're disgusting and I hate them, but they are so incredibly dumb. They can fly and they get stuck all the time. All they have to do is fly, but they're too fucking dumb.
If you startle them they release this foul smell that's basically impossible to do anything about until it eventually wears off in like a week. It smells like rotting mint and I hate it.
That being said they are so dumb you can just put a paper towel in front of them and they'll just crawl onto it usually and then just gently bring them to the toilet and flush their dumbasses. Can't stink things up when they're drowning.

I hate these m***********s! Harmless but very annoying thingy. They like warm south-side walls and were I'm from houses have shutters outside on our windows. They love crawling in there for shelter and can't remember the way out and subsequently squeeze themselves through the shutter operation to wind up inside your house at 4 am buzzing and stinking around. Had them frequently for about 2 years around spring. Seem to have diminished a bit though.
We found some like this, i think they just have a brain that says go up. There were hundreds of the nymphs on the rim of our outside burner and they were going round and round on it for days. In the end i got worried they would die so i put a broom up against it so they could go up that and not starve in a never ending walk going nowhere. They could have just gone down the burner to get to the ground but their tiny little brains could only tell them to go up and left.
Does this one have little spines on each side? Looks like the predatory Stinkbug I caught a while back. These guys are closely related to assassin bugs and giant water bugs.

Pretty good example of why dust is so hard on bugs. When people say they're afraid a bug might crawl out of the vacuum cleaner I may point them to this video.
Literally no reason to kill these guys. They're harmless and funny. I always catch and release these suckers. Get a bunch of em in the spring at my place.
I know I feel bad sometimes, I let one live for a while, well I tried to kill it and it survived. So I watched it, then it got close to my kitchen & was like โnoop. You gotta goโ I didnโt want any surprises when getting a glass or bowl
Those fuckers give me anxiety. Had two of them come out of the vents in my car and had a hell of a time trying to shoo them out the window while driving...

I couldn't hear anything! Is your stink bug one-legged? Is your stink bug fat, skinny, or an in-between? That doesn't matter! Cause one size fits all! stink bug Mittons! You'll be smitten! So come on down to Paddy's Pub. We're the hoooooooommee of the original stink bug Mittons.

The only part of the story missing from this hero's journey is the beginning part that makes you care about this bug's struggle. I've paid to see movies way less entertaining than this.
These little bastards are all over the place around here. Between stuff like this and them constantly flying full force into literally everything (windows, doors, lamps, monitors, people, animals, ovens, boiling water, they literally just fly into anything and everything) I'm convinced they are in fact the dumbest species on the planet.
They've only gotten this far because they're somehow immune to any pesticide we can make and they taste so bad nothing will eat them.

Fun fact, this is a brown marmorated stink bug, which is a highly invasive species in most parts of the world!
They tend to not have many natural predators and mass breed and harm our crops greatly. Please exterminate all you see, in hopes that they go... exSTINKt....
I'm sorry for that last terrible pun... But seriously these guys are DEADLY toward crops.
I see a lot of people calling that a stink bug but it's not. That is the assassin bug and it can fly so I don't know what its doing.
Their bite has been described as being more painful than a wasp sting so they should be admired but not handled.
Importantly, these bugs not only bite, but their bites spread the parasite that causes Chagas disease, a disorder that does damage to major organs and can be fatal.

Yes, and they taste fucking horrible. Had one of these little assholes fly into my burrito when I wasn't looking. Felt something crunch, was trying to remember what I put on my burrito, then the taste hit me, I knew exactly what had happened.
This was in Roanoke, Va they got really bad there for a few years. I remember in the fall, the side of the house that faced west would be covered in them. They were trying to stay warm, literally hundreds. One of the only things I do not miss about that part of the country.

They have a musty smell, but I donโt think itโs all that strong or bad.

Those ones spray and will stink up a room like rotting fruit for days.

I wrote my finals work during the last 18 hours. I had the idea, I had all the info, but 0 word count 20 h before deadline. There was 10 points for poster. I didnโt have time for the poster (my girlfriend did it but in the wrong format, I included it but it wasnโt counted). There was barely enough time to put references which might or might not have supported my statements. Somehow I managed to create a passable mathematical model to calculate failure in very new materials that simply didnโt have such models created for them yet. To be frank, absence of such a model was what caused me to procrastinate till the last day when I said fuck it, something is better than nothing, letโs do it. I passed.
90% of my coursework was done on last day and submitted minutes before deadline. For one work that had to be posted by mail in paper I drove hundreds of miles to deliver it myself as, of course, I was writing it when it should have been in the post. Yep, engineer.

It really depends on what you want to do. So you want to install systems? You can make good money as an electrician but you will have to SOIL for a while I til you know enough to teach someone else and open your own company aka smarten up! As an engineer, you wouldn't have to strain your body like electricians do. Either way I think it's fulfilling work, and both can potentially pay well if you play your cards right. Whatever you do, use your brain to strategize and get somewhere where you're not working with your body when you're 50 cuz your body will give out before you retire unless you have a really good physique and sturdy ass body.

Well right now I do weight lift and box and shit ton of other physical activities, so I'm banking on my body lasting me a while. I do like working with my hands, but the idea of being an electrician to me just means that I'll be either going into peoples houses or installing systems for companies till I can hire people to do it.

The money though man! And as an electrical engineer, I can say that the actual job can be pretty fun when you design something, put it together on paper, then watch as the filthy peasants (/s) make it. Of course, it can also be stressful as shit. Thereโs a reason engineers make a good living; itโs not an easy job, but itโs a really satisfying one.

I have a similar experience, I think a lot of students experience sleep deprivation at least once while doing an assignment, mine, like yours was particularly bad though!
I did my 20K dissertation in 4 days with no prep, hadnโt even formatted my data Iโd collected over 5 months.
Trying to look through 20 journals and type as coherently as possible while micro-sleeping every 5 mins, then losing all short term memory and having to sift through the journals again to remember where you were at.
Didnโt sleep once, didnโt have caffeine either because it would make me crash, I just stood up and walked around my room what felt like every 10 mins. Probably ran the cold water tank out from cold showers, eventually cold showers stopped working and I had to muscle through.
If you have ever stayed up for multiple days itโs hard, but multiple days in the same room doing a monotonous task isnโt something Iโd wish on my worst enemy, it was literally torture.

Buddy, do yourself a favor and do it now. Anything is better than that hellhole of a week I put myself through.
I used to be proud of my ability to push out stupidly long projects in stupidly short amount of times--I am not proud of that because above all I just remember holy fuck did I suffer for it. Plus I was lucky enough to have a twin brother who knows my writing style to look over it and help smooth out the inevitable writing errors, run-ons, etc.
It's one thing to write a 20-30 page term paper in a couple of nights. It's entirely another to have to write a whole thesis in 7 days. I barely managed to get it done, and that was with the aforementioned lack of sleep, help, and a good amount of adderall. That experience finally taught me my lesson about procrastinating big assignments, I was burnt out for the next month. If you haven't started yet, 20 days gives you just enough time to get through it at a more reasonable, daily pace of 4-5 hours a day without all of the consequences. Thank God my board didn't ask a too many long questions because my brain was so fried that I would have started to sound like I was high if i had to talk for a while.
Get to work on it now, otherwise you're probably going to have to take an extension into next semester.

I think the vast majority of engineering students are aware that most other degrees also involve similar amounts of time and energy to complete.
I think the 'gatekeeping' to which you referred is actually an expression of the way that many people in scientific fields do not value non-scientific endeavours as highly, and so may see a similar amount of hard work in those endeavours as worth less than their own work.
Though I'm not trying to justify this, it is probably a product of normal human psychology, as are a great many other regrettable behaviours, and is not confined to students of any one particular subject.

I hold myself to the standard of two hours of research per day including weekends uninterrupted, and focused. More if possible, but always at least two hours just to keep progress happening. Marking, procrastination and side projects all fight for my time. Once a week I usually have a 16 hour binge when there is new idea to implement / when motivation graces me with its presence. During this period I don't eat and the bathroom becomes only a vague memory.

I'm in my 1L with a full ride so I'm happy to not have to worry about the crippling debt that every attorney Ive talked to complains about.

LPT: These are called stink bugs.
They emit a smell when threatened or killed by being squished, and that smell attracts other stink bugs. The best way to get rid of them? Grab a paper towel and grab them quickly. Throw em into the toilet and flush them. No stink. No attracting them. Theyre an invasive species from China and they have no predators. Except for me. I am their end. And i will stop at nothing until they all are vanquished

That's false. Toilet paper is designed to come apart when wet to go through pipes and tight spaces. Paper towels, wet wipes and things like that are built a lot stronger and aren't meant to come apart when wet. This leads to clogged pipes, backed up systems and loads of other issues.

Best way to get rid of them is to actually get a shallow dish of water and mix soap and dirrect a light over the top of it at night. Theyre attracted to the light and will fall in the water dying from the soap. I have hundreds of these annoying dive bombers every year.

I use Ajax, dawn may be counter productive considering they clean wild life with it? Not sure on that.
I believe the soap doesn't actually kill them, my bad on miswording this, I think what actually happens is that it breaks the tension of the water and forces them to drown. So maybe try more soap next time? You can also try adding vinegar to it as well, I know this also helps kill of bugs, but may drive some away.

I found a solution to help get rid of them. It works better on Box Elder Beetles but these guys dislike it too.
In a spray bottle mix 1 cup of warm water, 1/2 cup of vinegar and 1/4 of dish soap (preferably anti bacterial). Mix together then spray them. It dehydrates them.
Stink bugs don't die immediately but Box Elders do. After spraying a month ago, I have only seen a few of each bothering my house unlike the orgy that was before.

Paper towels can clog your plumbing, and the stink bugs can survive being flushed and come back anyway.
What you wanna do is suck them up in a vacuum, seal the bag up and throw it in a dumpster. Preferably one far away from your house.

San Diego checking in... I donโt know about this particular type of stankbug because we donโt see them here, but the kind we have donโt really stink when they do their โdefensive sprayโ (only makes the dogs leave them alone); but if you squash them it has a pretty distinct skunk-like smell. It will make your shoe stink pretty bad.

I hiked the PCT last year and saw a bunch of these. I'd see them sticking their butts in the air as I passed and it took me days to realize they were spraying stink. It did smell, but just kinda like a mild vinegar smell that I was attribute to a certain type of plant I kept seeing before I realized it was the bug.

In the Northeast US you get these guys every summer. They end up everywhere! Our hunting camp will have an army of them crawling and hanging off the screens once it starts getting warm. And no matter how much you try to keep them from getting inside, they somehow eventually make their way in. The smell they give off when you crush them is kind of hard to describe. Iโve always thought it had a strange, almost almond like quality to it - but not in a good way - sort of sickly sweet and it tends to linger in your nose - it's an organic acridness that is hard to compare other smells to.

I believe they are related but a different species, these are native to china, korea and japan, and are a massive agricultural pest in the us since they have almost no preditors here.
but why most people hate them is because this particular species loves to go into your house around fall and come out in spring, to the point that some houses have been found with thousands of them in them, in my house we usually have about 100 visible around the house in early fall and late spring, plus they smell and are clumsy as hell and will fly into anything including food and drinks and on one occasion my mouth.

I'm in the middle and can remember at least several times in the past few years where they have been on my washing on the line. They really like my shrubs such as the Red Robin so maybe if you don't have similar they don't thrive. I have seen loads of different patterns and sizes. I really like bugs and spend a lot of time in my garden so maybe more likely to notice them. They are a little annoying because once they are on you their 'feet'?

In PA as kids we occasionally saw green ones in the 80s. I didn't encounter the brown ones until the mid-90s.
Initially it seemed to be a plague affecting only me. I lived in a third-floor bedroom in an old house surrounded by trees, and they got inside constantly. No one I talked to had ever heard of them, and I only knew to call them stink bugs from seeing (smelling) them as a kid.
A couple years later, they were everywhere, feared by everyone.
Apparently the first specimen in the US was collected in PA in 1998. I was definitely seeing them by '95 at the latest.

Maybe you were ground zero. Any overseas trips or imported packages around that time? This could all be your fault!
Just kidding. But I live in Los Angeles and we got the brown widow first and my backyard was completely infested before I could even get much info on them when Iโd search for them but the very first reports of them began in 2007. First we had black widows but the brown widows beat them out once they arrived. Apparently theyโre more aggressive but less venomous? I may be remembering that wrong but they for sure were battling the regular black widow population.
And just cause ive already generalized to other invasive things. This local little tropical plant nursery unwittingly released these teeny tiny, talking rice grain size, frogs that made really loud annoying noise and began terrorizing the local neighborhoods! Theyโre so tiny they can hide really easily so they have been able to spread easily.

Sat in a train once just minding my own business when one of those fuckers came flying right into my hair and getting tangled. I just froze for about 5 minutes while silently looking at a the person in front of me like "Is it gone yet?"...
It did untangle itself eventually and was promptly (also gently) replaced into the trash bin.

Those nasty things stink, you will never get the disgusting smell off your hands if you touch it. It's the worst bug you can have in your room. Better trap it in a sealed container without touching/startling it.

I ate one on accident once. I was watching TV in my room eating from a pack of Oreos and apparently one crawled/landed on one of the cookies and I didn't notice it until the smell wafted into my nose through my mouth.
They taste the same as they smell only a lot worse along with a pungent bitterness.

Depending on your vacuum cleaner, it would either get deposited into a large holding area and then that's it, or get swirled around and likely shredded and stink the place up.

YourWillMyHands ยท 64 points ยท Posted at 07:49:43 on November 6, 2018 ยท (Permalink)
We call it a stink bug in Michigan. They are annoying as fuck during cold months, and as the name implies, they smell awful if they're agitated or squished. You pretty much need to capture them in a vacuum or a container to avoid your room smelling awful. My house isn't infested or anything, but I have to deal with one every few weeks. It's so annoying because I live upstairs and have to carry the vacuum up every time. They also fly towards lights so when I'm on my computer they divebomb my screen like Pearl Harbor and it scares the shit out of me.

I put on a jacket a few years ago and felt something weird on the opposite side of my pocket in the interior. It felt like a ball of lint stuck in the corner of the pocket, i randomly decided to squeeze it to feel it. Nope. Smashed a stink bug in my jacket pocket and it was so wet and gross. My fingers smelled so bad and it took a while of washing for the smell to go away.

I had to basically whack the sock against the window frame as hard as I could to get it to go out. They are very happy to stay put even with serious agitation.

fill a spray bottle with soapy water. take off the nozzle and use the pump as a sort of bridge for the stinkbug. once it climbs on, shove the pump and bug back into the bottle. Repeat ad infinitum.

Stink bugs are dumb as rocks. They just fly and zoom and they donโt dodge for nothinโ - which quite often means they come in full steam ahead right at your eyeballs. Ugh, they are so annoying - and they can stick around for a long ass time. I had a bunch overwinter and hitchhike in cardboard boxes when I moved and when I heard them flying around my new living room I almost went full flamethrower mode to get rid of them ASAP

That's a brown stinkbug. They're the most chill bugs you'll ever find: they don't bite, don't run away, and don't even wanna fly when you throw them with the tip of your foot. Takes a lotta convincing to scare one away.
Bad parts? They breed like crazy, get everywhere, infest the entire town during harvest season (previously in wheat fields) and you'll soon be up to your ankles in the fuckers. Hope you don't have any holes in your walls.
They also stink, but you gotta squish'em and smell them directly to notice. I wouldn't mind the little guys at all if they weren't the rabbits of the insect kingdom.

In Texas, an extremely easy case of mistaken identity with these guys can mean life or death. We also have what is known as "kissing" bugs because of their tendency to bite around the lips. They carry a very deadly virus which spreads a lot like Lyme Disease.

If you wanna kill these fuckers without getting sprayed or stinking up a room for days, do the following. Clean out a small plastic butter tub. Fill it 2/3rds with a nice smelling dish soap. Go hunting in warm dry places in the house and use the plastic top to flick the bug into the soap tub. Snap that top on quickly. Give a gentle shake and they drown. If you're lucky, they won't spray until after their sprayer is submerged in soap. When the tub gets too full of bug carcasses, dump it and repeat. A few years ago I killed 30+ of these bastards that were trying to Winter it out in the nice cozy dry attic.
Whatever you do, don't hit them, squish them, capture them in a tissue or even look at them funny or they will spray you with their pungent ass juice. Don't try to just flush them either, unless you like your bathroom to stink worse than actual stink, since they tend to float on water.

These are the dumbest insects imaginable. They're disgusting and I hate them, but they are so incredibly dumb. They can fly and they get stuck all the time. All they have to do is fly, but they're too fucking dumb.
If you startle them they release this foul smell that's basically impossible to do anything about until it eventually wears off in like a week. It smells like rotting mint and I hate it.
That being said they are so dumb you can just put a paper towel in front of them and they'll just crawl onto it usually and then just gently bring them to the toilet and flush their dumbasses. Can't stink things up when they're drowning.

I hate these m***********s! Harmless but very annoying thingy. They like warm south-side walls and were I'm from houses have shutters outside on our windows. They love crawling in there for shelter and can't remember the way out and subsequently squeeze themselves through the shutter operation to wind up inside your house at 4 am buzzing and stinking around. Had them frequently for about 2 years around spring. Seem to have diminished a bit though.

We found some like this, i think they just have a brain that says go up. There were hundreds of the nymphs on the rim of our outside burner and they were going round and round on it for days. In the end i got worried they would die so i put a broom up against it so they could go up that and not starve in a never ending walk going nowhere. They could have just gone down the burner to get to the ground but their tiny little brains could only tell them to go up and left.

They've only gotten this far because they're somehow immune to any pesticide we can make and they taste so bad nothing will eat them.

I absolutely despise these things, and anyone who doesn't will once they've been subjected to a dozen buzzing around and stinking shit up. Can't even smash them, or you wind up covered in their funk for 4+ hours... and it resists washing off.
It's like being invaded by an army of tiny skunks.

Came to PA from China in the 90's. My grandpa keeps a bottle filled with alcohol and scoops them up all winter. Wiki link for those interested. I remember them as early as 91/92 so maybe my area was ground zero.

Shitty pop music is not very motivational. If I was the bug, I would have given up as soon as I heard that shit.

First of all: hip hop not pop. Thereโs nothing wrong with it youโre just closed minded and donโt personally like it so assume itโs all trash. Every genre has its gems and trash.

You should never be allowed to work a camera ever again.
Besides the fact that you can't seem to hold the damn thing steady, you zoom in and out like 15-20 times every 3 seconds for absolutely no reason.
Thank goodness I'm not prone to seizures or motion sickness, 'Cause this is a nightmare.

We get a lot of stink bugs in the house this time of year, since itโs getting cooler and theyโre looking for warm places to hibernate. I like to pick them up and let them run up and down my arms. My daughter thinks itโs hilarious. Then they go back outside because ainโt nobody livin in this place rent-free.
