Not either of those two either, thanks anyway. I will try to get a good pic
with my digital camera and post it online somewhere and post the URL here.
But knowing me it could take weeks to do...LOL

Try this one (bronze citrus bug):

I was not aware of the harlequin bug the other link pointed to- never
seen it- you learn something every day, I guess.

I was thinking of the cotton harlequin bug, which is quite different:

It's a Harlequin bug, or stink bug, be careful as it shoots out a spray


that

is acidic and stinks, it's dangerous to the eyes and not too good for

your
skin either, and it takes forever to get the smell off. Wear old clothes


and

rubber gloves and a pair of goggles for the eyes, use a pair of tongs to
grab the buggers and drown them in a bucket of water.
