The nice brown marmorated stink bug is still alive after a week and still crawling around the same place. We called it Wörner. 🤣

@VE3RWJ Yes, it didn’t bug us. 🤣

@paulfoerster A little different from the bugs we call "stink bugs" here in southern Ontario Canada. They smell like ransid almonds if they spray, and that spray apparently contains cyanide compounds.

@VE3RWJ Well, you shouldn't touch bugs like the marmorated stink bug. As it's name suggests, it stinks quite strongly.

@paulfoerster mostly, I don't want my cat to try eating one.
