Florida Predatory Stink Bug nymphs
by: Moni

Misty
You have Fl predatory stink bugs or also called Halloween bugs on your porch. They are "good" bugs as they feed on other insect pests like caterpillars, leaf beetles and planthoppers. Both nymphs and adults feed on insects.
They are just found in the SE US.
They are known for their metallic blue/green thorax with red abdomens. The adults look similar.
The nymphs are known to congregate together...sometimes this is to work together on a food insect. Otherwise they sometimes are found together at night.
