Aphid sized? Wow, they looked bigger in the picture. I had pictured them more like lacewings which they resemble.

I sure am glad that we don't have them. I did have more trouble than usual with stinkbugs on my tomatoes last year. They pierce the tomatoes and cause unsightly yellow starburst scars. I still got plenty of unblemished fruits to feed us but I hated seeing those scarred ones. The chickens didn't mind. They love tomatoes.

I have never heard or seen those horrid creatures ( so thankful) and I don't want to see them.

We have plenty of other. stink bugs, gnats, crickets ...
