Specifically the Brown Marmorated Stinkbug which has apparently been
in the US less than 15 yrs. This is my 1st experience with any kind
of stinkbug.

You'll have more next year then. They mark their territory and return
next year with friends.

I had just a couple 3 years ago. Never heard of them before. Now I
have literally thousands invading the house in fall and exiting in
spring.

New twist this fall is that there appears to be new kinds tagging
along: greens and some smaller different shaped ones.

Starting to affect the fruit crops here now (western MD).

My shop vac has been working overtime.

Well, at least I have the consolation of knowing that about 2,000 of
them won't be reproducing.
