🪲 Stink Bug vs. Kissing Bug — Know the Difference! 🪲
They may look similar at first glance, but these two insects are very different:
📸 Photo 1: Stink Bug
✔️ Common in our area
✔️ Harmless to people, but can invade homes in large numbers
✔️ Known for their… well… stinky smell when crushed
📸 Photo 2: Kissing Bug
⚠️ Far less common, but a concern because they can transmit Chagas disease in some regions
⚠️ Often bite people around the mouth or eyes while they sleep
⚠️ Darker in color with orange/red markings along the sides
