I found one of these in Ankara Turkey. Judging from the other posts I think that makes the "endemic" part pretty obsolete. Also I went on to foolishly hold it with my fingers. Let me tell you, that bug is called the stinkbug for a reason. The smell didn't pass for about 2-3 hours no matter what I did. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 78.163.200.159 (talk) 17:52, 4 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I have found one of these in Manchester UK, is this normal? Stevan Kolarski (talk) 18:49, 19 October 2009 (UTC)I found a bunch of these around mu house and lots more in my basement in Serbia. So i guess they don`t live only in North America.[reply]
There is no information present about this insects distinctive characteristic (it's "noxious spray" as mentioned in the current article). It would be nice if we could find some more details on this liquid. draeath (talk) 18:44, 6 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
