My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Stink Bugs

16 years ago

Recently, my peppers have been invaded by Stink Bugs. Large, medium, and also small rounder ones.

I couldn't decide if they were doing any actual damage but then saw one of the smaller ones with his proboscis stuck into one of the newer shoots.

I know you aren't supposed to squish them as this attracts new Stinkers, so I've been flicking them off.

Any suggestions?
