About Us
 |
| The brown marmorated stink bug, Halyomorpha halys (Stål), is a voracious eater that damages fruit, vegetable, and ornamental crops in North America. |
With funding from USDA’s Specialty Crop Research Initiative, our team of researchers has mobilized to form a defense against the invasive pest brown marmorated stink bug (BMSB). We are working to find management solutions for growers, seeking strategies that will protect our food, our environment, and our farms. Test edit.
